What is the WACC for a firm with 40% debt, 20% preferred stock, and 40% equity if the respective costs for these components are 9.23% before tax, 12% after tax, and 18% before tax? The firm's tax rate is 35%.

Based on the following information, make an estimate of the stock's beta: Month 1 = Stock +1.5%, Market +1.1%; Month 2 = Stock +2.0%, Market +1.4%; Month 3 = Stock -2.5%, Market -2.0%

Calculate the risk premium on stock C given the following information: risk-free rate = 5%, market return = 13%, stock C beta = 1.3.
