Answer:

The company's pretax cost of debt is 7.45 %.

Explanation:

When it comes to bonds, the cost of debt is the required return on the bond known as the Yield to Maturity (YTM) of the bond.

The Yield to Maturity (YTM) of the bond can be determined as follows :

N = 23 × 2 = 46

PV = $951

Pmt = ($1,000 × 7 %) ÷ 2 = - $35

P/YR = 2

FV = - $1,000

YTM = ?

Using a Financial Calculator, the Yield to Maturity (YTM) of the bond is 7.4484 or 7.45 %

Therefore,

The company's pretax cost of debt is 7.45 %.
