WACC Estimation
On January 1, the total market value of the Tysseland Company was $60 million. During the year, the company plans to raise and invest $25 million in new projects. The firm’s present market value capital structure, shown below, is considered to be optimal. Assume that there is no short-term debt.
Debt $30,000,000
Common equity 30,000,000
Total capital $60,000,000
New bonds will have an 6% coupon rate, and they will be sold at par. Common stock is currently selling at $30 a share.

Market Value Capital Structure
Suppose the Schoof Company has this book value balance sheet:
Current assets $30,000,000 Current liabilities $10,000,000
Fixed assets 50,000,000 Long-term debt 30,000,000
Common stock
(1 million shares) 1,000,000
Retained earnings 39,000,000
Total assets $80,000,000 Total claims $80,000,000
The current liabilities consist entirely of notes payable to banks, and the interest rate on this debt is 9%, the same as the rate on new bank loans. These bank loans are not used for seasonal financing but instead are part of the company’s permanent capital structure. The long-term debt consists of 30,000 bonds, each with a par value of $1,000, an annual coupon interest rate of 8%, and a 15-year maturity. The going rate of interest on new long-term debt, rd, is 10%, and this is the present yield to maturity on the bonds. The common stock sells at a price of $68 per share. Calculate the firm’s market value capital structure. Round your answers to two decimal places.
