Nally, Inc., is considering a project that will result in initial aftertax cash savings of $5.8 million at the end of the first year, and these savings will grow at a rate of 3 percent per year indefinitely. The firm has a target debt-equity ratio of .57, a cost of equity of 13.2 percent, and an aftertax cost of debt of 5.1 percent. The cost-saving proposal is somewhat riskier than the usual project the firm undertakes; management uses the subjective approach and applies an adjustment factor of +3 percent to the cost of capital for such risky projects.

Requirement 1:

Calculate the WACC. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percentage rounded to 2 decimal places (e.g., 32.16).)
