Check the following calculations

Explanation:

a.Cost of Retained Earnings(Ke) = [Dividend (1+growth)/Market price] + growth Cost of Retained Earnings    

=[1.26 (1+0.06)/40] + 0.06        

=0.09339          

=9.339%          

=9.34%

b.Company Cost of New Common Stock          

(Ks)=[Dividend (1+growth)/(Market price - floatation costs ] + growth Rate    

=[1.26 (1+0.06)/(40-7)]+0.06          

=0.10047            

=10.047%            

=10%  

c.Cost of Preferred Stock          

Kp=Prefered Dividend/(market price - Flotation cost)      

=2/(25-3)            

=0.090909          

=9.09%  

d.cost of debt financing          

Kd= [{Coupon +(FV-RV)/T}/(FV+RV)/2] x [1 - 0.40]        

=[{100+(1000-1175)/5}/(1000+1175)/2] x [1-0.40]        

=[65/1087.5] x 0.60          

=0.035862          

=3.586%            

=3.59%  

e.WACC            

The maximum investment that Edna Recording Studios can make in new projects before it must issue new common stock

And maintaining the same capital structure        

total capital fund before raised          

that is out [4,200,000 - 1000,000 x 1.26] / 0.5 =$5,880,000      

IWACC for the project that are finance from old fund      

WACC= Ke x E/V +Kp x P/V + Kd   x D/V        

= 9.339 x 0.50 + 9.09 x 0.10 + 3.586 x 0.4        

=7.0129%  [this wacc is for procets finance from 0 to $5,880,000 FUND]    

IIWACC for the project that is financed from revised raised fund above $5,880,000. Assuming fund is raised from all the three sources like that maintain same ratio of capital structure means percentage of fund in the capital structure  

WACC= Ke x E/V +Kp x P/V + Kd   x D/V        

= 10.047 x 0.50 + 9.09 x 0.10 + 3.586 x 0.4        

=7.3669%  [this wacc is for the projects from above $5,880,000]    

Kp=Cost of preferred stock          

Ke = cost of equity        

Kd = cost of debt        

D = market value of the firm’s debt        

V = E + D+P        

E/V = percentage of financing that is equity = 50%      

D/V = percentage of financing that is debt=40%      

P/V=Percentage of financing that is preferred stock=10%
