Query-cost of capital

vijay ltd equity share is selling at rs. 50.  the company expects its eps of rs. 7.5.     co. has a policy of paying 60 % of its earnings as dividends.the co. earns a return of 10% on its re invested profit.

co. has plans for expansion for which it wants to issue a 10 year, 8 percent rs 1000 per bond at a premium of rs 20 .underwriting commission = rs 40/bond.              tax rate = 35 %.

after issue of bonds co. wishes to have debt equity ratio of 30:70.

work out cost of equity,after tax cost of bond and overall cost of capital.

 

doubt:  how to deal with retained earnings and corresponding overall cost of cap in this ques.?????
