Answer:

WACC of ABC Corporation is 91%

Step-by-step explanation:

WACC = Kd * (1+T) * Debt/Debt+Equity + Ke * Debt/Equity

Kd = Cost of debt

T = Corporate tax rate

WACC = 0.08*(1-0.35)*(150m/150m+650m) + 0.10*(650m/150m+650m)

WACC = 0.08 *0.65*0.1875 + 0.10*0.8125

WACC = 0.00975 + 0.08125

WACC = 0.091

WACC = 91%

Therefore, the WACC of ABC Corporation is 91%
