Answer:

weight of dbet in the capital structure 33.32%

Explanation:

We must calculate the market value of the firm.

market value of equity:

20,100 shares x $82 per share = $1,648,200 value of equity

market value of the debt:

380,000 x 98%  =   372,400

480,000 x 94%  =   451,200  

   total debt:           823,600

Value of the firm:

1,648,200 + 823,600 = 2,471,800

weight of debt:

debt / value =  823,600 / 2,471,800 = 0.333198 = 33.32%
