Debt Common stock You have been assigned to calculate the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) of XYZ firm. The firm can raise debt by selling $1,000-par-value, 4% coupon interest rate, 11-year bonds on which annual interest payments will be made. To sell the issue, an average discount of $30 per bond would have to be given. The firm also must pay flotation costs of $35 per bond. The fimm is in the 30% tax bracket. Preferred stock The firm can sell 8.5% preferred stock at its $100-per-share par value. The cost of issuing and selling the preferred stock is expected to be $8 per share. Preferred stock can be sold under these terms. The firm's common stock is currently selling for $80 per share. The firm expects to pay cash dividends of S7 per share next year. The firm's dividends have been growing at an annual rate of 6%, and this growth is expected to continue into the future. To sell new shares of common stock, the firm must underprice the stock by $8 per share, and flotation costs are expected to amount to $6 per share.
