True or False? For finance experts out there?

After-tax cost of debt is more expensive than after-tax cost of preferred stock.

False. Debt provides a tax shield by the deduction of the interest cost from income, lowering the tax burden. Preferred stock pays a dividend which is not deductible.

That makes no sense because it is two completely different things.
