a. Bellevue is a hotel company. It currently has a total enterprise value of 500, debt outstanding for 200, on which it pays cost of debt equal to 5%. You have also estimated that its beta of equity is 0.8, and the company faces a corporate tax of 25%. The risk-free rate you observe in the market is 3%, and you estimate the equity risk premium to be 6%. What is Bellevue Wacc? b. Suppose that Bellevue wants to expand its activity by taking over a restaurant company. You find three companies in the restaurant industry (Eatout, Goodfood and Dinein) that are listed in a stock exchange, so that you can gather relevant financial information. Bellevue is planning to fund the acquisition with the same capital structure of its main hotel business (i.e.: D/EV=40%). Assuming that the corporate tax is 25%, the risk free rate is 3% and the equity risk premium is 6%, calculate the WACC that Bellevue should use for analyzing its planned investment in the restaurant industry.
