Answer:

0.62 or 62 %

Explanation:

Weight of common equity = Market Value of Equity ÷ Total Market Value of Sources of Finance

where,

Market Value of Equity = $111 million

Total Market Value of Sources of Finance = $62 million + $7 million  + $111 million = $180 million

therefore,

Weight of common equity = $111 million ÷ $180 million

                                            = 0.62 or 62 %

Conclusion

the weight of common equity that should be 0.62 or 62 %
