WACC is the weighted average cost of capital whereby the target proportions of debt and equity along with the component costs of capital are used to calculate. The equation can be summarized as follows: -
WACC = WdKd + WpKp + WcKs where Wd is the weight of debt
Kd is the after-tax cost of debt

Ks is the cost of preferred stock
Wc is the weight of common stock
Ks is the cost of common stock
WACC = 0.60(0.08) + 0.10(0.10) + 0.30(0.15)
WACC = 0.103 or 10.30%
