Answer:

WACC 8.53600%

Explanation:

[tex]WACC = K_e(\frac{E}{E+D}) + K_d(1-t)(\frac{D}{E+D})[/tex]

The Weighted average cost of capita lconsiders the weight of the equity times the cost of it.

And the wight of the dbet times the cost of financing after the tax shield.

Ke 0.11000

Equity weight 0.65

Kd 0.06

Debt Weight 0.35

t 0.34

[tex]WACC = 0.11(0.65) + 0.06(1-0.34)(0.35)[/tex]

WACC 8.53600%
