Cross-Ocean Boats Ltd. is in the 30% tax bracket. It is interested in determining the minimum

with them, they have assigned this task to you.
To get started with your work, you compile some information as follows:

mature in 12 years and they sell for 80% of their par value as of now.
2. The firm is also partly equity financed. It has 100,000 outstanding common shares and
19,000 shares of preferred stock. The common shares command a market price of $55
per share and the beta of Cross-Ocean stock is 1.20. Preference shares offer a 6% fixed
dividend and sell for $110 per share.
3. The risk-free rate is 4% and the market risk premium is 6%
