FIN3701ASSIGNMENT 2 (SEMESTER 2)
DUE DATE: 14 September 2023
QUESTION 1
REQUIRED:
1.1 Calculate the WACC associated with each range of financing/break-point. (18 marks)
ANSWER:
To calculate the Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) associated with each range of financing/break-
point, we'll need to consider both the cost of debt and the cost of equity for each financing option. We'll
also calculate the weighted average cost based on the optimal capital structure weights of 40% debt and
60% equity.
Calculations of the WACC for each financing option:
1. Debt Financing:
• Debt Amount (D) = R150,000
• Cost of Debt (Kd) = [(Annual Coupon Rate * (1 - Tax Rate)) + (Flotation Cost / (Par Value - Discount))]
/ (1 - Flotation Cost)
• Kd = [(0.08 * (1 - 0.30)) + (20 / (1000 - 50))] / (1 - 0.03)
• Kd = [0.056 + ()] / 0.97
