Explanation / Answer

Answer:

Book Value Weight

Capital Structure

Book Value

Book Value Weight (Book Value / Total Book Value)

Common Stock

$55,500,000

$55,500,000 / $215,770,000 = 0.257

First Bond

$97,000,000

$97,000,000 / $215,770,000 = 0.450

Second Bond

$63,270,000

$63,270,000 / $215,770,000 = 0.293

Total Value

$215,770,000

1.000

Weight of Equity on book value basis = 0.257

Weight of Debt on Book Value basis = 0.450+0.293 = 0.743

Market Value Weight

Capital Structure

Market Value

Market Value Weight (Market Value / Total Market Value)

Common Stock (11.1 million x $55)

$610,500,000

$610,500,000 / $763,431,520 = 0.800

First Bond ($97,000,000 x 94%)

$91,180,000

$91,180,000 / $763,431,520 = 0.119

Second Bond ($63,270,000 x 97.6%)

$61,751,520

$61,751,520 / $763,431,520 = 0.081

Total Value

$763,431,520

1.000

Weight of Equity on Market Value basis = 0.80

Weight of Debt on Market Value basis = 0.119 + 0.081 = 0.20
