PROBLEM
Debt: The firm can sell a 20-year, P1,000 par value, 9 percent bond for P980.
A flotation cost of 2 percent of the face value would be required in addition to
the discount of P20.
Preference share: The firm has determined it can issue Preference share at
P65 per share par value. The share will pay an P8.00 annual dividend. The
cost of issuing and selling the share is P3 per share.
Ordinary share: The firm’s ordinary share is currently selling for P40 per
share. The dividend expected to be paid at the end of the coming year is
P5.07. Its dividend payments have been growing at a constant rate for the last
five years. Five years ago, the dividend was P3.45. It is expected that to sell, a
new ordinary share issue must be underpriced at P1 per share and the firm
must pay P1 per share in flotation costs. Additionally, the firm’s marginal tax
rate is 40 percent.
COST OF DEBT
Formula:
Cost of Debt = (Interest+ (Par Value-Net Proceed)/ (no.of years))/ ((Par Value Net Proceed)/2)
FORMULA:
Cost of Debt (After Tax) = Cost of Debt before tax (1-tax rate)
Cost of Debt= 9.39% (1-0.4)
Cost of Debt=5.6%
Market Value = ₱ 40
Expected Dividend= ₱ 5.07
Flotation Cost = ₱ 1
Growth Rate= ((Final Dividend)/ (Initial Dividend)) ^(1/period)-1
= (5.07/3.45)1/5-1
=8%
Cost of Preference Share= (₱5.07/₱ 39-1) +8%
= (₱5.07/₱ 38) +8%
Cost of Preference Share=21.34%

3. PORT LINER has compiled the following data relative to current costs of its basic sources of external
capital—long-term debt, Preferenceshare, and Ordinaryshare equity—for variant ranges of financing.

The firm expects to have P350,000 of current retained earnings in the coming year at a cost of 20
percent; once these retained earnings are exhausted, the firm will issue new ordinaryshare. The
company’s target capital structure proportions are used in calculating the weighted average cost of
capital follow.

Ordinaryshare equity 0.50
a. Calculate the firm’s cost of capital prior to exhausting the firm’s available current retained
earnings.
ka = (7) (0.25) + (19) (0.25) + (20) (0.50)
ka = 1.75 + 4.75 + 10
ka = 16.5%
b. Calculate the firm’s cost of capital for P2,000,000 of total new financing.
