Step-1:Calculation of Wighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) | ||||
WACC | = | (Wd*Kd)+(We*Ke) | ||
= | (0.40*0.049)+(0.60*0.12) | |||
= | 9.16% | |||
Where, | ||||
Kd | = | Before tax cost of debt*(1- Tax Rate) | ||
= | 7%*(1-0.30) | |||
= | 0.049 | |||
Wd | = | Weight of debt | ||
We | = | Weight of equity | ||
Ke | = | Cost of Equity | ||
Step-2:Calculation of residual income | ||||
Residual Income | = | Net Income | - | (Total assets * WACC) |
= | $ 2,00,000.00 | - | (2000000*9.16%) | |
= | $ 2,00,000.00 | - | $ 1,83,200.00 | |
= | $ 16,800.00 |
