Cost of Debt
Cost of Debt
Based on the interest/coupon rate Before tax cost of debt is the rate of return required by the lenders
INT kd i B0
where,
kd is the cost of debt I is the coupon rate of interest B0 is the issue price of the bond INT is the amount of interest
2
The before tax cost of debt can be calculated using the following equation:
where, Bn is the repayment of debt on maturity B0 is the issue price of the bond
INTt Bn B0 t n t 1 (1 k ) (1 kd ) d
n
This equation can be solved for kd by trial & error & interpolation
Valuation of bonds
Types of yield
Current yield or basic yield Weighted yield Yield to maturity YTM and default risk Yield to call Yield spread Holding period return Realised Compound yield and YTM
Risk analysis
Default Risk Market interest rate risk Liquidity Risk Inflation Risk Reinvestment Risk
Tax Adjustment
The interest paid on debt is tax deductible The higher the interest charges, lower would be the amount of tax payable by the firm As a result, the after-tax cost of debt to the firm will be substantially lower than the investors required rate of return After-tax-cost of debt = kd(1-T) Where T is the corporate tax rate Loss making firms will not have after tax cost of debt In Calculation of WACC after-tax-cost of debt is to be used

The cost of preference share is not adjusted for taxes because preference dividend is paid after the corporate taxes have been paid
Since interest is tax deductible & Preference dividend is not, the cost of preference is substantially higher than the after tax cost of debt

Difference between cost of retained earnings & cost of external equity would be floatation costs
13
The opportunity cost of retained earnings is the rate of return foregone by equity shareholders 1. Normal Growth: The cost of Equity is equal to the expected dividend plus capital gain rate
DIV1 ke g P0
Where,
ke = cost of equity DIV1 = DIV0(1+g) g= expected growth in dividends
14
DIV1 P o ke g
These equations are based on the following assumptions:
Market price of shares is a function of expected dividends The Dividend is positive The dividends grow at a constant rate & g = ROE X Retention Ratio The dividend payout ratio is constant
Also called as GORDONs model Implies the opportunity cost for the shareholders, if these earnings were to be distributed as dividends

2. Supernormal Growth
When dividends grow at different rates, the dividend valuation model is used as follows:
DIV0 (1 g s ) DIVn1 1 P0 X t n ke g n (1 ke ) 1 ke t 1 Where, gs = super-normal growth rate for n years & gn is the growth rate beginning in the year n+1, perpetually
n t
3. Zero growth:
DIV1 ke P0

Consists of funds raised externally through public or rights issue The minimum rate of return required by equity shareholders to keep the market price of share same is the cost of equity Firm can induce existing or potential shareholders to purchase new shares when it promises rate of return which is equal to
Where Div1 = Expected dividend = Div0 (1+g) P0 = Current market price g = Expected growth rate in dividend = RoE x Retention Ratio
ke = Div1 + g Po
New issues of ordinary shares are generally sold at a price less than the prevailing market price Hence cost of equity can be calculated as
ke = Div1 + g Pn
Where Div1 = Expected dividend = Div0 (1+g) Pn = Issue price of new equity = Issue Price Floatation cost g = Expected growth rate in dividend = RoE x Retention Ratio
Walters Model
Po = (D/Ke) + (r/Ke)(E-D) /Ke
