Hi can someone please help explain something to me. I am working on a class problem for WACC.
In this WACC problem:
1) Corporate tax rate is 40%
2) the effective tax rate is 16%
3) Proportion of tax credits claimed by investors is 60%
I am trying to find the effective tax rate (Te= Tc(1-y)) of an overdraft. The information on the overdraft is:
1) Market Value = $300000
2) Overdrafts pay 11% interest pa, compounding daily.
I have found the nominal tax rate (11.63%)
I calculated the after tax effective rate to be 11.63(1-.16)= 84%
My lecturer has said that we need to get the answer 9.7658%, but I am unsure what the final step was, and how he got this.
Can someone please explain?
Thanks
