Solution:-
Computation of cost of capital (WACC):-
Debt ratio = 40%
Marginal tax rate = 40%
Forecasted average inflation = 3.50%
Current bond's yield to maturity = 6.50%
Current 10 year treasury notes yield i.e. Risk free rate of return (Rf) = 4%
Market risk premium (Mp) = 5.50%
Beta (β) = 1.15
Debt ratio (i.e. 40%) = Total Debt/Total Capital Employed
= 40/100
Total Capital employed = 100
Debt capital ( D ) = 40
Equity Capital ( E ) = 60
Cost of debt (kd) = Current yield on bond*(1-tax rate)
= 6.5%*(1-40%)
= 3.90%
Cost of equity (Ke) = Rf+(β*Mp)
= 4%+(1.15*5.5%)
= 10.33%
Cost of Capital (WACC) (Ko) = (Kd*(D/(D+E)))+(Ke*(E/(E+D)))
= (3.9%*(40/100))+(10.33%*(60/100))
= 7.76%
Cost of capital of Road King Trucks is 7.76% (as calculated above).
