FMcost of preference shares for WACC calculation formula

ZZeneatha10y ago
9% preference shares are redeemable at a premium of 5% in 10 years time. Dividends for the current year have been paid and the preference shares in the similar risk class are currently yielding at 12% per annum. Calculate the cost of the preference shares. The Formula is Kp= D1/Po The D1 is the 9% How do i get the Po??

This is not in the syllabus for Paper F2 - it is Paper F9. In addition, if they are redeemable then you would need to calculate the IRR. You can find free lectures in the Paper F9 section.
