Preferred stock: Preferred stock is paying an annual dividend of $9.50 and is currently trading at $79.16.





Common equity: The current market price of common stock is $22.50 per share. The annual dividend just paid was $1.70 per share, and the dividend is expected to grow indefinitely at a constant rate of 6%.





Target capital structure: The firm has agreed that its optimal capital structure should consist of 30% debt, 20% preferred stock, and 50% equity.
