Cost of Capital – Chapter 11
5
Firm’s cost of financing (use of investor funds)
Average return required by firm’s investors
What must be paid to attract funds
Base rate of return that a project must earn to increase firm value
WACC = weighted-average cost of capital
Weighted-average cost of types of financing
Weights are percentages of capital structure
Capital structure
Most firms attempt to maintain optimal mix of debt and equity financing

Cost of Capital
6
Types of capital used by firms to raise money:
kdebt pretax = EAY = before tax cost of debt
kdebt after-tax = EAY(1-T) = after-tax cost of debt
kps = cost of preferred stock
kcs = cost of common stock
7
Capital Components of WACC

8
The Finance Balance Sheet
MV of assets = MV of liabilities + MV of equity (11.1)
8
Cost of debt is weighted-average cost of all of the firm’s debt combined
Consider bonds outstanding and all loans outstanding at market value
Current cost of debt for a publicly traded bond = yield to maturity (YTM) adjusted for effective annual interest rate (EAR or EAY)
Account for float (issue) costs
Current cost of long-term bank or other private debt
Call the banker and ask what rate the bank would charge if they decided to refinance the debt today
9
Estimating Cost of Debt
9
Net proceeds
Funds actually received by the firm
Used to find pretax cost of debt
Issuance costs
Underwriting – investment bankers
Administrative – legal, accounting, etc.
After-tax compounded cost of debt (true cost)
EAY (YTM adjusted for compounding)
10
Cost of Bonds (Long-Term Debt)
10
Company wants to issue $1,000 par value, 9% coupon, 20-year bonds with semi-annual interest payments
Similar risk bonds are being issued at coupon rates > 9% so the company has to sell bonds for $980 each
In addition, the company must pay issuance costs of $30 per bond
Net proceeds to the company: $950 each
Calculate pretax cost of debt (annual YTM and EAY)
11
Calculating Pretax Cost of Bonds
Calculation Example
See YTM/EAY handout
Step 1: Calculate semiannual yield.
PV = -950
FV = 1,000
PMT = 1,000 x 9% coupon / 2 = 45
N = 20 x 2 = 40
I = ?
I = 0.04783
Step 2: Calculate Yield-to-Maturity (YTM)
YTM = Periodic yield x number of periods per year
= 0.04783 x 2 = 0.0478 x 2
= 0.09566 = 0.0956
= 9.57% = 9.56%
Step 3: Calculate Effective Annual Yield (EAY)
Enter: 1 + semiannual yield
Raise to power of number of periods
(1.04783)2 = 1.0979 (1.0478)2 = 1.0979
EAY = 9.79% =9.79%
11
Interest payments are tax deductible
Interest expense reduces firm’s taxable income
This leads to smaller tax liability
This makes debt the cheapest form of financing
After-tax cost of debt
kdebt pretax (or EAY) = pretax cost of debt
T is the firm’s tax rate
kdebt after-tax = EAY(1 – T)
If the firm’s tax rate is 40% and the pretax cost of debt is 9.79%, what is the after-tax cost?
12
After-Tax Cost of Bonds
After-tax cost of debt = 9.79% x (1-0.40) = 0.05874 = 5.87%
12
Cost of Preferred Stock
Rate of return investors require on firm’s preferred stock
Preferred dividend divided by net issuing price
13
kps = Dps (11.6)
Pps
Where:
kps = cost of preferred stock
Dps = constant (fixed) dividend
Pps = per-share net proceeds firm receives from issue or sale
after deducting issue costs
13
Student Investment Co. wants to issue a preferred stock with the following features:
$77 par value (which is what it will sell for)
10% dividend ($7.70/share)
Issue (flotation) costs/share = $3
What are the net proceeds per share?
What is the company’s cost of preferred stock?
14
Cost of Preferred Stock
Calculation Example
kps = Dps (11.6)
Pps
Where:
Dps = constant (fixed) dividend
Pps = per-share net proceeds firm receives from issue or sale
after deducting issue costs
Net proceeds per share = $77 issue price - $3 issue cost = $74 per share
Kps = 7.70 / (77 – 3) = 7.70/74 = 0.104054 = 10.41%
14
Cost of Common Equity
Return required from common equity investors
Based on market values of common stock
Three alternative methods for estimating cost of common stock
Most appropriate method to use depends on what information is available and how reliable the analyst believes it is
Method 1: Using Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM)
Method 2: Using Constant-Growth Dividend Model
Method 3: Using Multistage-Growth Dividend Model
15
We will cover the CAPM and constant-growth dividend models shortly.
The multistage-growth dividend model for companies with variable dividend growth rates. It is similar to the supernormal growth common stock valuation method we covered in Parrino chapter 8. Know that it exists, what it is and when to use it, but we will not cover it in detail for this chapter. You may be tested on concepts, but you will not be tested on its calculations.
15
kcs = Rrf + (βcs × market risk premium)
Where:
kcs = cost of common equity
Rrf = risk-free rate of return
βcs = beta coefficient for common stock
Market risk premium = expected market return - risk-free rate
16
The CAPM Approach
Calculating Cost of Common Stock
16
Price and expected rate of return on a share of common stock depends on the dividends expected on the stock.
17
Calculating Cost of Common Stock
Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) Approach*
kcs = D1 + g (11.5)
P0
Where:
kcs = cost of common stock
g = constant growth rate**
D1 = next period’s expected dividend
P0 = current stock price
formula
assumes
constant dividend growth rate
* Expected rate of return
** “g” may need to be calculated
“g” may need to be calculated based on historical dividend patterns and statement about growth expectations.
Example: A company’s dividend has grown at a consistent rate and is expected to continue to do so. The annual dividend was $3.00 three years ago. The company just paid a dividend of $4.00.
What’s the annual dividend growth rate? FV = 4, PV = -3, N = 3, PMT = 0, I = ? = 10.06% g = 10/06%
What’s next year’s dividend (D1) expected to be? $4.00 x 1.1006 = $4.40
17
Assumptions
Current risk-free rate is 2%
Annual market return is 8%
Company’s beta is 1.8
What is the cost of common stock?
18
CAPM Method – Calculation Example
Calculating Cost of Common Stock
kcs = Rrf + (βcs × market risk premium)
kcs = 0.02 + [1.8 x (0.08 – 0.02)]
= 0.02 + 0.108
= 0.128
= 12.8%
18
Assumptions
Dividend in year 1 = $3.50
Current market price = $33.63
Dividends are growing at 2%/yr
What is the cost of common stock?
19
Calculating Cost of Common Stock
Constant Growth Method – Calculation Example
kcs = D1 + g (11.5)
P0
kcs = 3.50/33.63 + 0.02
= 0.10407 + 0.02
= 0.12407
= 12.41%
19
Calculated the same as existing common stock
Difference is in market price
Price will be lower due to flotation/issuance costs
May have to underprice shares to sell
Cost is higher than existing common stock
Usually most expensive type of financing for a company
20
Costs of New Common Stock Issues

Capital Structure and WACC
Optimal Capital Structure
% debt, % preferred stock and % common equity in firm’s capital structure that will maximize the price of the firm’s stock
WACC (weighted-average cost of capital)
Weighted average of the component costs of debt, preferred stock and common equity
Based on market values for each type of capital
Why use a weighted average?
Use of debt impacts the ability to use equity, and vice versa
Weighted-average cost must be used to evaluate projects
Regardless of specific financing used to fund a particular project
Required return on the mix of investments (from investors’ perspective)
21
21
WACC = xDebt kDebt pretax (1-t) + xps kps + xcs kcs (11.7)
Where:
t = tax rate
xDebt = proportion of debt in firm’s capital structure
xps = proportion of preferred stock in firm’s capital structure
xcs = proportion of common stock in firm’s capital structure
kDebt pretax = before-tax cost of debt
kps = cost of preferred stock
kcs = cost of common stock
22
Weighted-Average Cost of Capital (WACC)
22
Two important points should be noted for the WACC calculation:
Best to convert the weights into decimal form and leave the individual costs in percentage terms.
The weights must be non-negative and sum to 1.0 or 1.00.
23
Calculating WACC – Important Points
23
We found the costs of the types of capital for Student Investment Co. to be as follows:
Cost of debt, kdebt after-tax = 5.87%
Cost of preferred stock, kps = 10.41%
Cost of new common stock, kcs = 12.80%
The company has the following market values for capital. Use these to determine the weights used in calculating its WACC.
Long-term debt (amount owed) = $399,923
Preferred stock (based on market price) = 1,300 shares outstanding at $77/share
Common stock equity (market price) = 14,867 shares outstanding at $33.63/share
Calculate the WACC based on the above information.
What is the WACC used for?

Potential Errors When Using WACC
Two types of problems can arise when a firm’s WACC is used to evaluate individual projects:
A project with a positive NVP may be rejected (green area)
A project with a negative NVP may be accepted (pink area)
Limitations of using WACC as discount rate for evaluating all projects
If WACC used as discount rate is too high, the firm may reject projects that would have positive NPV if correct discount rate were used. (pink area)
WACC-estimated NPV would be negative even though true NPV would be positive.
If WACC used as discount rate is too low, the firm may accept projects that would have negative NPV if correct discount rate were used. (green area)
WACC-estimated NPV would be positive even though true NPV would be negative.
Only really correct to use firm’s WACC to discount cash flows for a project if the following conditions hold:
Condition 1: If the level of systematic risk for an individual project is the same as that of the portfolio of projects that currently comprise the firm
Condition 2: If the individual project uses the same financing mix (proportions of debt, preferred stock and common stock) used to finance the firm as a whole
26
Alternatives to Using WACC
If the discount rate for a project cannot be estimated directly, a financial analyst might try to find a public firm that is in a business that is similar to the project.
“Pure-play” comparable because it is exactly like project
This approach is generally not feasible due to the difficulty of finding a public firm that is only in the business represented by the project.
Financial managers sometimes classify projects into categories based on their systematic risks.
They then specify a discount rate that is to be used to discount the cash flows for all projects within each category.

Bond Yields
What is it?
Rate that makes present value of bond’s cash flows equal price of bond
Rate a bondholder earns if bond is held to maturity and all coupon and principal payments are made as promised
Changes daily as interest rates change
When using a financial calculator, we are solving for i
Yield-To-Maturity (YTM)
42
42
What is it?
In bond trading, the effective annual interest rate (EAR) is called the effective annual yield (EAY).
Method to annualize a bond yield
Formula EAY = (1 + Quoted Interest Rate/m)m -1 Where: Quoted Interest Rate = simple annual yield (i.e., semiannual yield x 2) m = number of compounding periods per year
Simple annual yield is yield per period multiplied by the number of compounding periods
For bonds with semiannual compounding, simple annual yield = semiannual yield 2
