Answer:

a) 14.77%

b) 12%

Explanation:

first we must determine the price of the company when it has no debt (unlevered) = [$97,000 x (1 - 24%)] / 13% = $567,076.92

the value of the firm after it has taken the debt = $567,076.92 + ($195,000 x 24%) = $613,876.92

debt to equity ratio(D/E) = $195,000 / ($613,876.92 - $195,000) = 0.4655

new cost of equity (Re) = old cost of equity + [(old cost of equity - cost of debt) x D/E ratio x (1 - tax rate)] = 13% + [(13% - 8%) x 0.4655 x 0.76] = 14.77%

WACC = (0.6823 x 14.77%) + (0.3177 x 8% x 0.76) = 10.08% + 1.92 = 12%

Lets consider all the other options to eliminate them from our choice

Option E: The option reduces the liability and reduces the expenses which is against the requirement of  the question
