Breakdown the problem into two parts.
00:05
So in first part, we need to determine how much of the new investment must be financed by common equity to maintain the present capital structure.
00:14
So the present capital structure.
00:26
Consist of both debt and common equity each amounting to dollar three crore.
00:58
So since the total capital is dollar six crore, you plan to invest dollar one crore in new projects.
01:36
Maintain the same ratio of debt to equity.
01:41
So the amount of new investment to be financed by common equity is common equity portion is equal to capital, sorry, total capital portion.
01:59
Multiply it by new investment, which is equal to putting in the values.
02:17
Dollar three crore multiplied by sorry divided by dollar six crore.
02:30
Then multiply it by dollar one crore.
02:36
Now, we have to calculate this.
02:42
Which is equal to one divided by two multiplied by dollar one crore.
02:48
So evaluating it we get common equity portion is equal to dollar therefore dollar 50 lakh of the new investment must be financed by common equity to maintain the present capital structure.
03:23
Then in part two, we have to calculate the weighted average cost of capital that is wacc.
03:29
So the wacc is the weighted average of the cost of debt and cost of equity.
03:34
So we can use the following formula to calculate wacc...
