A firm that is in the 35% tax bracket forecasts that it can retain $3 million of new earnings plans to raise new capital in the following proportions:

50% from 20-year bonds with a flotation cost of 5% of face value. Their current bonds are selling at a price of 92 (92% of face value), have 5 years remaining, have an annual coupon of 7.2%, and their investment bank thinks that new bonds will have a 50 basis point (0.50%) higher yield-to-maturity than their current 5 year bonds due to their longer term.

10% from preferred stock with a flotation cost of 6% of face value. The firm currently has an outstanding issue of $50 face value fixed-rate preferred stock with an annual dividend of $3 per share, and the stock is currently selling at $36 per share. Any newly issued preferred stock will continue with the $50 par-value, and will continue the $3 dividend.

40% from equity. Their common dividend payout ratio is 60%, they recently paid a dividend of $1.60 per share, the dividend is expected to grow to $3.50 in 10 years, and is expected to continue this growth rate into the foreseeable future. The common stock has a current market price of $19, and their investment banker suggests a flotation cost of 6% of market value on new common equity.
