18. McGraw-Hill/Irwin © 2005 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., All Rights Reserved. Cost of Capital LT 11-2 The cost of capital represents the overall cost of financing to the firm The cost of capital is normally the relevant discount rate to use in analyzing an investment The overall cost of capital is a weighted average of the various sources, including debt, preferred stock, and common equity (retained earnings): WACC = Weighted Average Cost of Capital WACC = After-tax cost x weights

19. McGraw-Hill/Irwin © 2005 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., All Rights Reserved. Cost of Debt LT 11-3 The cost of debt to the firm is the effective yield to maturity (or interest rate) paid to its bondholders Since interest is tax deductible to the firm, the actual cost of debt is less than the yield to maturity: After-tax cost of debt = yield x (1 - tax rate)

20. McGraw-Hill/Irwin © 2005 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., All Rights Reserved. Cost of Preferred Stock LT 11-4 Preferred stock: – has a fixed dividend (similar to debt) – has no maturity date – dividends are not tax deductible to the firm and are expected to be perpetual or infinite Cost of preferred stock = dividend price-flotation cost

21. McGraw-Hill/Irwin © 2005 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., All Rights Reserved. Cost of Common Equity: Retained Earnings LT 11-5 Common stock equity is available through retained earnings (R/E) or by issuing new common stock: Common equity = R/E + New common stock The cost of common equity in the form of retained earnings is equal to the required rate of return on the firm’s common stock (this is the opportunity cost)

22. McGraw-Hill/Irwin © 2005 The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., All Rights Reserved. Cost of Common Equity: New Common Stock LT 11-6 The cost of new common stock is higher than the cost of retained earnings because of flotation costs Flotation costs: selling and distribution costs (such as sales commissions) for the new securities
