Respuesta :

Answer:

Correct option is B.

The weight of debt for WACC purposes is 23.08%

Explanation:

Amount of debt = 2 million x 0.90

 = 1.80 million

Amount of equity = 2 million x 3

= 6 million

Weight of debt = amount of debt/ (amount of debt + amount of equity)

  = 1.80 million / ( 6 million + 1.80 million)

  =23.08%
