Hey everyone,

Does anybody know what these components of WACC stand for? NINJA book just states the formula and doesn’t explain the terms:

WACC = (wtd x kd) + (wtpf x kpf) + (wte x ke)

Thanks in advance! 🙂

AUD - NINJA in Training

W/ WACC its usually weight x cost of cap for debt, preferred stock (or equity), and common stock (or equity). Debt gets taxed. I.e 20% debt at 10% cost of cap, 30% Preferred stock at 10% cost of cap, 50% Common stock at 8% cost of cap. Tax rate is 40%

so

D = 20% x 6% (10% * 1- 40%) = 01.2%
PS = 30% x 10% = 3%
CS = 50% x 8% = 4 %

1.2% + 3% + 4% = 8.2% WACC
