What does the WACC measure? How would you gather information for each component (weights and costs) of the WACC formula (assume the company has preferred shares and incurs a tax rate of 30%)?
correct and short answer please
The WACC measures the amount that has to be paid to the providers of capital to finance the assets of the firm.
The information about the weight of the different components of the WACC is provided in the question.
WACC = weight of debt * after tax cost of debt + weight of equity * cost of equity + weight if preference* cost of preference
D/ A* After tax cost of debt + E/A * cost of equity + P/A * cost of preference
D/A is the weight of debt E/A weight of equity and P/A is the weight of preference.
The total weight would be = weight of debt+ equity + preference shares.
The total market value of debt can be calculated as 50,000 bonds of 1000 par value the bonds are trading at $950.
value of debt = $950* 50,000
= $475,00,000
So, when the value of debt is divided by the total market value of the firm we can calculate the D/A.
The cost of equity is calculated as :
Re = D1/Po + g
Weight of equity would be for example, 1,000,000 million of $25 each. The shares are trading at $30. So, the market value of equity is :
= 1,000,000 * $30
= $3,0000,000
Similalrly, we can compute the E/A .
The cost of equity can also be calculated as per the CAPM model.
The cost of debt is calculated after tax and it is the yield to maturity of the debt :
The weight of debt can be calculated as 300,000 shares trading at $45 each.
Cost of preference is calculated as:
Rp = DP/ Rp
