Answer:

(B) 57.36 percent

Explanation:

Common Stock = 60,00,000x$15

                           = $9,00,00,000

Preferred Stock = 20,00,000x$28

                           = $5,60,00,000

Debt = 10,000x$1,000x109%

         = $1,09,00,000

Total Market Value = $5,60,00,000 + $1,09,00,000

                                 = $15,69,00,000

Weight of Equity = [Market Value of Equity/Total Market Value]x100  

                            = [$9,00,00,000/$15,60,00,000]x100

                            = 57.36%

Therefore, The weight used for equity in the computation of Carrie D's WACC would be 57.36%
