1. Purple Lemon Fruit Company is considering issuing a new 15-year debt issue that would pay an annual coupon payment of $85. Each bond in the issue would carry a $1,000 par value and would be expected to be sold for a price equal to its par value. Purple Lemons CFO has pointed out that the firm would incur a flotation cost of 1% when initially issuing the bond issue. Remember, the flotation costs will be (A. Added or B.

Calculate the After-tax cost of debt without flotation cost (A. 4.8450% B.5.1000% C. 4.3350% D. 5.6100%)

Calculate the after-tax cost of debt with flotation cost (A. 4.8450% B. 4.5900% C. 6.1200% D. 5.1728%)

This is the cost of (A. Embedded or B. New) debt, and it is different from the average cost of capital raised in the past.
