The company has one bond issue outstanding. Ten years ago, they issued 30-year bonds
with a face value of $1,000. The firm originally issued 350,000 of these bonds but
repurchased 100,000 of them in the last three years. The bonds sell at 106% of face
value. The current yield on these bonds is approximately 7% and the bond pays semiannual
coupons of $37.
Liabilities:
Current Portion of Long Term Debt 0
Long – Term Debt 300
Tax Rate: 20%
I don't know which numbers to use
I know that the cost of debt relates to the YTM which is 7% from the bonds but I'm sure I have to do something else to find the cost of debt.
