Which of the following statements is CORRECT?

A. We should use historical measures of the component costs from prior financings that are still outstanding when estimating a company's WACC for capital budgeting purposes. B.

C. A company must try to adjust its current actual market value weights toward its target weights. D. The component cost of preferred stock is expressed as rp(1 ? T), because preferred stock dividends are treated as fixed charges, similar to the treatment of interest on debt. E.
