    Total weight is calculated as follows:

    Common stock (12,200 x $56) = 683,200

    Preferred stock (315 x $90) = 28,350

    Bond (380 x $2,240) = 851,200

    Total market value 1,562,750

    The capital structure weight of common stock = 683,200/1.562,750 x 100

    = 43.72%

    Explanation:

    In this case, we need to determine the total market value of the company and then divide the market value of common stock by the market value of the company.
