Explain how a firm creates value and identify the key sources of value creation. 2. Define the overall “cost of capital” of the firm. 3. Calculate the costs of the individual components of a firm’s cost of capital - cost of debt, cost of preferred stock, and cost of equity. 4. Explain and use alternative models to determine the cost of equity, including the dividend discount approach, the capital-asset pricing model (CAPM) approach, and the before-tax cost of debt plus risk premium approach. 5. Calculate the firm’s weighted average cost of capital (WACC) and understand its rationale, use, and limitations. 6. Explain how the concept of economic Value added (EVA) is related to value creation and the firm’s cost of capital. 7. Understand the capital-asset pricing model's role in computing project-specific and group-specific required rates of return. After Studying Chapter 15, you should be able to:

Cost of Capital  Imagine that one week later a new investment opportunity is available  In this instance, the firm rejects the opportunity, because the 14% financing cost is greater than the 12% expected return.  Is this action in the best interests of its owners?

Cost of Capital  No—it accepted a project yielding a 7% return and rejected one with a 12% return.  Is there a better way?  Yes: the firm can use a combined cost, which over the long run would provide for better decisions.  By weighting the cost of each source of financing by its target proportion in the firm’s capital structure, the firm can obtain a weighted average cost that reflects the interrelationship of financing decisions.

Cost of Capital  Assuming that a 50–50 mix of debt and equity is targeted, the weighted average cost in this example would be 10% [(0.50 x 6% debt) + (0.50 x 14% equity)].  This outcome is clearly more desirable.  With this cost, the first opportunity would have been rejected (7% IRR 10% weighted average cost).

Sources of finance The four sources of long-term funds for the business firm: debt, preference share capital, ordinary share equity capital and retained earnings.

18. 15.18 Van Horne and Wachowicz, Fundamentals of Financial Management, 13th edition. © Pearson Education Limited 2009. Created by Gregory Kuhlemeyer. Sources of finance This is important!! The specific cost of each source of financing is the after- tax cost of obtaining the financing today, i.e. the marginal cost of raising the next dollar of funding It is not the historically based cost reflected by the existing financing in the firm’s accounting records Only the cost of debt needs to be adjusted for tax. Why do we not adjust the cost of preference shares and equity for tax? Because dividends are paid from tax-paid profits. Therefore, the cost of these is an after-tax cost

Cost of debt Du Chen Corporation is selling $10 million of 20-year, 9% coupon (stated annual interest rate) bonds, each with a face value of $1,000. Similar-risk bonds earn returns greater than 9% so the firm must sell the bonds for $980 to compensate for the lower coupon interest rate. The flotation costs paid to the investment banker are 2% of the face value of the bond (2% × 1000), or $20. The net proceeds to the firm from the sale of each bond are therefore $960 ($980 – $20).

Cost of debt To solve this, we need a financial calculator or a spreadsheet. However there is a Yield to Maturity (YTM) formula that gives an good approximation answer: kd = [I + (1,000 – Nd)/n]/(Nd + 1000)/2 Where I = the interest payment in $ Nd = proceeds from the sale of the bond n = number of periods until the bond maturity.

Cost of debt Assuming a 30% tax rate and before-tax cost of 9.4%, k i = 0.094 x (1 – 0.30) = 6.6% = after-tax cost The explicit cost of long-term debt is less than the explicit cost of other forms of long-term financing, because of the tax- deductibility of interest.

28. 15.28 Van Horne and Wachowicz, Fundamentals of Financial Management, 13th edition. © Pearson Education Limited 2009. Created by Gregory Kuhlemeyer. Cost of Preferred Stock The cost of preference share capital (k p ) is the ratio of the preference share dividend (D p ) to the firm’s net proceeds (N p ) from the sale of preference shares  k p = D p / N p Example: consider an 8.5% pref issue, at par = $2.00 a share with an issue cost of 11 cents per share  k p = ($0.17) / ($1.89) = 9% (N p = 2.00 – 0.11 = $1.89)

29. 15.29 Van Horne and Wachowicz, Fundamentals of Financial Management, 13th edition. © Pearson Education Limited 2009. Created by Gregory Kuhlemeyer. Cost of Preferred Stock Comparing the 9% cost of preference capital with the 6.6% cost of long-term debt (bonds) shows that preference capital is more expensive. The difference exists primarily because the cost of the debt (interest) is tax-deductible. The cost of preference share capital already issued is the dividend (D p ) divided by the market value (P) of preference share capital k p = D p / P If the market value of Du Chen Corporation’s preference share capital is $10 million, and preference dividend payable is $0.9 million, the return on its preference share capital is: k p = $0.90/$10.00 = 9.0%

NPV to an all-equity- financed firm What is the NPV to an all-equity- financed firm? NPV = $100,000[PVIFA 11%,6 ] – $425,000 NPV = $423,054 – $425,000 NPV– $1,946 NPV = – $1,946 Basket Wonders NPV Solution
