    Answer: ko = ke (E/V) + kd (D/V) (1-T)

    ko = 18 (100/150) + 11 (50/150) (1-0.35)

    ko = 12 + 2.38

    ko = 14.38%

    The correct answer is 14.38%

    Explanation: WACC equals cost of equity multiplied by the ratio of equity to value of the firm plus cost of debt multiplied by the after-tax ratio of debt to the value of the firm. the variables are defined as follows:

    Ko = WACC

    ke = Cost of equity

    E = Market value of equity

    kd = Cost of debt

    D = Market value of debt

    T = Corporate tax rate
