What would be the weights used in the calculation of WhackAmOle’s WACC? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

Explanation / Answer

Market Value of Common Stock = 3Milion * 65 = $ 195 Million

Market value of Preferred Stock = 2 Miillion * 59 = $ 118 Million

Market Value of Bond = 0.075 Million *1000*105% = $ 78.75 Million

Total Market Value = 195+118+78.75 = $ 391.75 Million

Equity weight = 195/391.75 = 49.78%

Preferred stock weight= 118/391.75 = 30.12%

Debt weight = 78.75/391.75 = 20.10%

Answer

Equity weight 49.78%   Preferred stock weight 30.12%   Debt weight 20.10%
