CHAPTER 8The Cost of Capital
What sources of capital should be included in a firm’s WACC?
Should we focus on before-tax or after-tax capital costs?
Should we focus on historical (embedded) costs or new (marginal) costs?
What’s kd? Coupon = 12% semi; Price = $1,153.72; 15 years.
Component cost of debt
What’s the cost of preferred stock? Pps = $113.10; 10%Q; Par = $100; F = $2.
Picture of Preferred
Note
Is preferred stock more or less risky to investors than debt?
Why is yield on preferred lower than kd?
Illustration
Why is there a cost for retained earnings?

Three ways to determine cost of retained earnings, ks:

What’s the DCF cost of retained earnings, ks? Given: D0 = $4.19; P0 = $50; g = 5%.
Suppose the company has been earning 15% on equity (ROE = 15%) and retaining 35% (dividend payout = 65%), and this situation is expected to continue.What’s the expected future g?
Retention growth model:g = b(ROE) = 0.35(15%) = 5.25%.Here b = Fraction retained.Close to g = 5% given earlier. Think of bank account paying 10% with b = 0, b = 1.0, and b = 0.5. What’s g?
Could DCF methodology be applied if g is not constant?
Find ks using the own-bond-yield-plus-risk-premium method. (kd = 10%, RP = 4%.)
What’s a reasonable final estimate of ks?
How do we find the cost of new common stock, ke?
