Excel Online Structured Activity: WACC Estimation On January 1, the total market value of the Tysseland Company was 560 million. During the year, the company plans to raise and invest $20 million in new projects. The firm's present market value capital structure, shown below, is considered to be optimal. Assume that there is no short-term debt. Debt Common equity Total capital $30,000,000 30,000,000 560,000,000 New bonds will have an 8% coupon rate, and they will be sold at par. Common stock is currently selling at $30 a share. The stockholders' required rate of return is estimated to be 12%, consisting of a dividend yield of 4% and an expected constant growth rate of 8% (The next expected dividend is $1.20, so $1.20/$30 = 4%.) The marginal corporate tax rate is 40% The data has been collected in the Microsoft Excel Online file below. Open the spreadsheet and perform the required analysis to answer the question below. Open spreadsheet a. In order to maintain the present capital structure, how much of the new investment must financed by common equity? Enter your answer in dollars. For example, $1.2 million should be entered as $1200000. Round your answer to the nearest dollar. Do not round intermediate calculations. $ b.
