Orange Inc., an orange juice producer with a current debt-to-equity ratio of 2, is considering expanding its operations to produce toothpaste. Unsurprisingly, the toothpaste industry faces a different set of risks than the orange juice industry. However, the executives at Orange Inc. observe that Paste Inc., a toothpaste company, has a cost of equity of 12%, a cost of debt of 6%, and a debt-to-value ratio of 40%. Orange Inc. plans to finance its expansion into toothpaste production with 50% debt and 50% equity. The cost of debt for Orange Inc. is also 6%, and the corporate tax rate is 25%. Solve for the discount rate that Orange Inc. should use when evaluating whether to go forward with the expansion Note: Orange Inc. does not want to use the Adjusted Present Value method. Appropriate Rate = 12.08%
Appropriate Rate = 9.60%
Appropriate Rate = 13.20%
Appropriate Rate = 8.85%

Calculate the cost of each capital component—in other words, the after-tax cost of debt, the cost of preferred stock (including flotation costs), and the cost of equity (ignoring flotation costs). use both the capm method and the dividend growth approach to find the cost of equity. calculate the cost of new stock using the dividend growth approach. what is the cost of new common stock based on the capm? (hint: find the difference between re and rs as determined by the dividend growth approach and then add that difference to the capm value for rs.)assuming that gao will not issue new equity and will continue to use the same target capital structure, what is the company’s wacc? e. suppose gao is evaluating three projects with the following characteristics. each project has a cost of $1 million. they will all be financed using the target mix of long-term debt, preferred stock, and common equity. the cost of the common equity for each project should be based on the beta estimated for the project. all equity will come from reinvested earnings. equity invested in project a would have a beta of 0.5 and an expected return of 9.0%.equity invested in project b would have a beta of 1.0 and an expected return of 10.0%.equity invested in project c would have a beta of 2.0 and an expected return of 11.0%.analyze the company’s situation, and explain why each project should be accepted or rejected g
