Answer:

WACC = 6.92%

Explanation:

total equity = 210,000 x $36 = $7,560,000,weight of equity = 56%

cost of equity:

36 = 1.65672 / (Re - 4%)

Re = 8.602%

total bonds = $5,940,000, weight of bonds = 44%

bond YTM = 7.24%

after tax cost = 7.24% x 66% = 4.78%

WACC = (.56 x 8.602$) + (.44 x 4.78%) = 4.817 + 2.103 = 6.92%

YTM = (70 + 10/4.89) / (1990/2) = 72.04 / 995 = 7.24%
