Answer:
0.2488
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculation to determine what would be the weight used for common stock in the computation of Town Crier's WACC
Using this formula
WACC=(shares of preferred stock outstanding*preferred share are selling per share)/(shares of common stock outstandin*common shares are selling for per share,)+(shares of preferred stock outstanding*preferred share are selling per share)+ (bonds amount*bonds selling percent of par*1,000)
Let plug in the morning
WACC=(3.7 million *$17.20)/(6.7 million x$29.80)+(3.7 million *$17.20)+27.00 thousand bonds*96.83 percent*1,000
=$63,640,000/($199,660,000+$26,144,100)
=$63,640,000/$255,804,100
=0.2488*100
=24.88%
Therefore what would be the weight used for common stock in the computation of Town Crier's WACC is 24.88%
