Explanation / Answer

CAPM = 1.25% + 1.2*7%

= 9.65%

Price of stock = D1 / Re - g

74.17 = 5.2 / Re - 0.0315

Re(cost of equity-DDM)  = 10.2%

Cost of equity average = (10.2%+9.65%)/2

= 9.9%

Preferred stock Rp = D / P0

= 4.75/97.2

= 4.88%

before tax cost of debt = 2.94%

after tax cost of debt = 2.94%*(1-0.34)

= 1.94%

WACC

therefore, the WACC is 6.44%
