Team Sports has 4.9 million shares of common stock outstanding, 2.9 million shares of preferred stock outstanding, and 29 thousand bonds. If the common shares are selling for $3.90 per share, the preferred share are selling for $15.9 per share, and the bonds are selling for 98.91 percent of par, what would be the weight used for common stock in the computation of Team's WACC

The weight used for common stock in the computation of Team's WACC is 20.35%.

Explanation:

Since par value of a bond is $1,000, we have:

Bond selling price = Bond par value * Selling price percentage = $1,000 * 98.91% = $989.10

the weight used for common stock in the computation of Team's WACC can be calculated as follows:

Value of common stock = Number of shares of common stock outstanding * Common stock price per share = 4,900,000 * $3.90 = $19,110,000

Value of preferred stock = Number of shares of preferred stock outstanding * Preferred stock price per share = 2,900,000 * $15.9 = $46,110,000

Value of bond = Number of bonds * Bond selling price = 29,000 * $989.10 = $28,683,900

Team's total value = Value of common stock + Value of preferred stock + Value of bond = $19,110,000 + $46,110,000 + $28,683,900 = $93,903,900

Therefore, we have:

Weight of common stock = Value of common stock / Team's total value = $19,110,000 / $93,903,900 = 0.2035, or 20.35%

Therefore, the weight used for common stock in the computation of Team's WACC is 20.35%.
