2. Discount Rate Determination: CAPM and WACC BMA Ch 10 Capital Market History –Market Risk and Return Capital Asset Pricing Model Company Cost of Capital –Capital Asset Pricing Model –Risk of Businesses –Weighted Average Cost of Capital Measuring Beta and the Cost of Equity Project Cost of Capital

3. Capital Market History future value of $1 invested in 1900 (nominal)

4. Capital Market History Risk and Return

5. Market Risk and Return Histogram of Annual Stock Market Returns Return % # of Years

6. Market Risk and Return r f risk-free rate (on t-bills) r m (stock) market rate (r m -r f )market risk premium

7. Capital Asset Pricing Model Security Market Line Return. rfrf Risk Free Return = Efficient Portfolio Market Return = r m BETA1.0 SML Equation = r f + β ( r m - r f )

8. Capital Asset Pricing Model r = r f + β ( r m - r f ) CAPM

9. Company Cost of Capital and CAPM Expected return on firm’s businesses Cost of funds invested in firm’s assets (businesses) Depends on average risk of firm’s businesses (Beta) Discount rate for firm’s average risk projects Required Return Firm Beta 0.96 Company Cost of Capital.107.04 0 SML r = r f + β ( r m - r f )

10. Company Cost of Capital is based on the average beta of its businesses (or assets) The average beta of the assets is based on the % of funds in each asset Example 1/3 Risky ventures β=1.4 1/3 Moderate risk businesses β=0.96 1/3 Low risk assets β=0.58 Average β of assets = 0.96 Company Cost of Capital and Business Risk

11. Company Cost of Capital and WACC IMPORTANT E and D are market (not book) values r E = r f + β equity ( r m - r f ) r D = r f + β debt ( r m - r f )

12. Company Cost of Capital and WACC Expected return β debt β assets β equity r debt =.061 r assets =.107 r equity =.138

13. Company Cost of Capital and WACC r D – typically given by debt markets (interest rate) r E – determined by stock market Regression analysis of stock market data to determine β and thereby to measure the cost of equity r equity = r f + β equity ( r m - r f )

14. Measuring Beta and the Cost of Equity Exxon Mobil Slope determined from plotting the line of best fit. Market return (%) Exxon Mobil return (%) R 2 =.18 β = 0.51 Price data: Dec 97 - Apr 04

15. Measuring Beta and the Cost of Equity Dell Computer Slope determined from plotting the line of best fit. Price data: May 91- Nov 97 Market return (%) Dell return (%) R 2 =.10 β = 1.87

16. Measuring Beta and the Cost of Equity Dell Computer Slope determined from plotting the line of best fit. Price data: Dec 97 - Apr 04 Market return (%) Dell return (%) R 2 =.27 β = 1.61

17. Measuring Beta and the Cost of Equity General Motors Slope determined from plotting the line of best fit. Market return (%) GM return (%) R 2 =.07 β = 0.72 Price data: May 91- Nov 97

18. Measuring Beta and the Cost of Equity General Motors Slope determined from plotting the line of best fit. Market return (%) GM return (%) R 2 =.29 β = 1.21 Price data: Dec 97 - Apr 04

19. Measuring Beta and the Cost of Equity GM’s cost of equity (hypothetical example) β E =1.21 r f =.033 (r m - r f )=.08 r E =.033+1.21(.08) =.13 r E = r f + β E ( r m - r f )

20. Company Cost of Capital GM’s cost of capital (hypothetical example) r E =.13 r D =.08 E = 60 D = 40 r =.08*(40/100) +.13*(60/100) =.11

21. Company Cost of Capital GM evaluates investing in a new green car division Assumptions: 1.Project Green costs $300 mil to start 2.PG is expected to produce CF = $100 mil for each of five years 3.PG has the same risk as GM’s overall business (β E =1.21) What is the NPV of the project? $69,701,295

22. Project Cost of Capital Depends on project risk Starting point is company cost of capital –Correct if project has same level of risk as firm Methods of adjustment for risk differences Determining risk-adjusted discount rate (radr)

23. Project Cost of Capital adjusting Beta 1.GM’s Project Green is determined to be 50% riskier than current business lines –Adjust both r D and r E –r =.1483 –NPV = $36,553,225 2.GM’s Project Green is determined to be 30% less risky than current business lines –r =.0868 –NPV = $92,199,918
