The Williams Company has a present capital structure (that it considers optimal) consisting of 30 percent long-term debt and 70 percent common equity. The company plans to finance next year’s capital budget with additional long-term debt and retained earnings. New debt can be issued at a coupon interest rate of 10 percent.The cost of retained earnings (internal equity) is estimated at 15 percent. The company’s marginal tax rate is 40 percent.Calculate the company’s weighted cost of capital for the coming year.
Quigley Inc. is considering two financial plans for the coming year. Management expects sales to be $300,000, operating costs to be $265,000, assets (which is equal to its total invested capital) to be $200,000, and its tax rate to be 35%. Under Plan A it would finance the firm using 25% debt and 75% common equity. The interest rate on the debt would be 8.8%, but under a contract with existing bondholders the TIE ratio would have to be maintained at or above 5.0. Under Plan B, the maximum debt that met the TIE constraint would be employed. Assuming that sales, operating costs, assets, total invested capital, the interest rate, and the tax rate would all remain constant, by how much would the ROE change in response to the change in the capital structure? Do not round your intermediate calculations
Olsen Outfitters Inc. believes that its optimal capital structure consists of 70% common equity and 30% debt, and its tax rate is 25 %. Olsen must raise additional capital to fund its upcoming expansion. The firm will have $1 million of retained earnings with a cost of rs = 10%. New common stock in an amount up to $10 million would have a cost of re = 11.0%. Furthermore, Olsen can raise up to $4 million of debt at an interest rate of rd = 11% and an additional $3 million of debt at rd = 14%. The CFO estimates that a proposed expansion would require an investment of $8.8 million. What is the WACC for the last dollar raised to complete the expansion? Round your answer to two decimal places.
