We need to calculate cost of capital (WACC) for the company EnCana.

The formula for weighted


average cost of capital is given below.

𝑊𝐴𝐶𝐶 = 𝐾𝑒 ( ) + 𝐾𝑑 ( )(1 − 𝑡)

To calculate cost of capital we need five unknowns mentioned in above formula

1. Total Debt = D
2. Total Equity = E
3. Tax Rate = t
4. Cost of Debt = 𝐾𝑑
5. Cost of Equity = 𝐾𝑒

Calculations:
1. Total Debt (D) = 5278 + 1278 + 1425 + 73

= 8054

2. Total Equity (E) = 5264 + 10743


= 16007

𝐷 8054
= = 0.3347
𝐷+𝐸 8054 + 16007

𝐸 16007
= = 0.6652
𝐷+𝐸 8054 + 16007

1260
3. Tax Rate (t) =
4089

= 0.3081

= 6.5%

5. Cost of Equity (𝐾𝑒 ) = 𝑅𝑓 + 𝛽 (𝑅𝑚 − 𝑅𝑓 )

𝑅𝑓 = Long term government bond rate = 4.2%


Β = 1.27
𝑅𝑚 = Arthmatic Average Market return = 13.9%

𝐾𝑒 = 4.2 + 1.27 (13.9 − 4.2)

= 16.519%
𝐸 𝐷
𝑊𝐴𝐶𝐶 = 𝐾𝑒 ( ) + 𝐾𝑑 ( )(1 − 𝑡)
𝐷+𝐸 𝐷+𝐸
𝑊𝐴𝐶𝐶 = 16.519 (0.6652) + 6.5 (0.3347)(1 − 0.3081)

𝑊𝐴𝐶𝐶 = 10.9884 + 1.5052


𝑊𝐴𝐶𝐶 = 12.4936%
