Given a text T, and several options, according to the question posed in the text T to choose the most appropriate option from the options as the answer, please directly output the most appropriate option, do not need to output the explanation.

Lindsay White, CFA, is an analyst with a firm in London, England. She is responsible for covering five companies in the Consumer Staples industry. White believes the domestic and global economies will grow slightly below average over the next two years, but she is also concerned about the possibility of a mild recession taking hold. She has been asked to review the companies that she covers, and she has collected information about them, presented in Exhibit 1. White has estimated that earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) will remain constant for all five companies for the foreseeable future. Currency is in terms of the British pound (￡).The marginal corporate tax rate is 30% for all five companies.
| Exhibit l.Selected Company Financial Data |
| ratio | (market | Aquarius | Be ma | Garth | Holte | Vega |
| EBIT(E) | 600，000 | 600，000 | 400，000 | 400，000 | 400，000 |
| Debt-to-equityvalue) | 0.60 | 0.00 | 0.00 | 0.71 | 0.62 |
| Debt(market value) (E) | 2，000，000 | 0 | 0 | 2，000，000 | 2，000，000 |
| S&P debt rating | A+ | n.a. | n.a. | A- | A |
| Weighted average cost of capital | 10% | 10% |


Based on conversations with management of the five companies, as well as on her own independent research and analysis, White notes the following:Aquarius:● has lower bonding costs than does Bema.● has a higher percentage of tangible assets to total assets than does Bema.● has a higher degree of operating leverage than does Bema.Garth:● invests significantly less in research and development than does Holte.● has a more highly developed corporate governance system than does Holte.● has more business risk than does Holte.In addition, White has reached various conclusions regarding announcements by Bema, Garth, and Vega:AnnouncementBema has announced that it will issue debt and use the proceeds to repurchase shares. As a result of this debt-financed share repurchase program, Bema indicates that its debt/equity ratio will increase to 0.6 and its before-tax cost of debt will be 6%.ConclusionAs a result of the announced program, Bema's total market value should decrease relative to Aquarius's.AnnouncementGarth has announced that it plans to abandon the prior policy of all-equity financing by the issuance of ￡1 million in debt in order to buy back an equivalent amount of equity. Garth's before-tax cost of debt is 6%.ConclusionThis change in capital structure is reasonable, but Garth should take care subsequently to maintain a lower D/E ratio than Holte.AnnouncementVega has announced that it intends to raise capital next year, but is unsure of the appropriate method of raising capital.ConclusionWhite has concluded that Vega should apply the pecking order theory to determine the appropriate method of raising capital.
Based on the MM propositions with corporate taxes, Garth's cost of equity after the debt issuance is closest to:
Option A:10.00%.
Option B:10.85%.
Option C:11.33%.

Answer: C
