    Hi,
    I have tried following way... I am not sure if it is correct... somebody please sugest-----

    (a)
    I(1—T) + {(F—P)/n}
    Kd =---------------------------------
    (F+P)/2

    Where Kd is post tax cost of debenture capital,
    I is the annual interest payment per unit of debenture,
    T is the corporate tax rate,
    F is the redemption price per debenture,
    P is the net amount realized per debenture,
    n is maturity period


    13.5(1—0.52) + (2—1.8)/7 13.5*.48+.2/7 6.51
    ------------------------------------- = -------------------------- = ----------- = 3.43
    (2+1.8)/2 1.9 1.9

    (b) 13.5(1-.52)+(2-2.2)/4 13.5*.48-.2/4
    ---------------------------= ------------------- =6.43/.21 =3.06
    (2+2.2)/2 2.1
