The pretax answer is:
1000 X 70/100 = 70
1000 X 94/100 = 940
then the pretax is 70/940 which 7.44%
the after tax is
Pretax X (1 - 35/100) = 7.44/100 ( 1-35/100) which = .0744 X (1- .35)
so .0744 X .65
answer of after cost of debt is 4.84%
1000 X 70/100 = 70
1000 X 94/100 = 940
then the pretax is 70/940 which 7.44%
the after tax is
Pretax X (1 - 35/100) = 7.44/100 ( 1-35/100) which = .0744 X (1- .35)
so .0744 X .65
answer of after cost of debt is 4.84%
