Stock Risk B 1.5
Market Return Rm 25%
Interest Rate for Debt Rd (B.T) 9%
TAX rate T 5%
Preferred Stock Dividend D(ps) 10
Preferred Stock Price P(ps) 100

Solution:
1. Calculate the cost of common stocks: (Rs)
Cost of common stock (Rs)
(Rf + (Rm - Rf)*beta
7% + (25%-7%)*1.5
7% + 27%
34%

Item Amount
($)
Debt 50,000
Common Stocks 1,00,000
Preferred Stocks 50,000
Total 2,00,000
Weight
Debt / Total Capital 0.25
Common Stocks / Total Capital 0.5
Preferred Stocks / Total Capital 0.25
