Solution
The solution is mentioned below −
Market value (A) = no.of shares * price => 2500000 * 48 => Rs. 120000000/-
Determine company debt = 30000000
Cost of equity = 2.75% +5.60*1.25 => 0.0975
Cost of debt = 5.90*(1-22.25%) => 0.046
-
Weight of cost of capital = (R/V*Ke)+(D/V)*Kd*(1-tax rate)
=(120000000/150000000)*0.0975 + (30000000/150000000)*0.046
= 0.078+0.0092
= 0.0872
= 8.72 %
