| | Cost of Capital |
| | ROE - the cost of equity to your business - calculates the value of the equity in your business and then the cost of this equity. | | | Cost of Capital explains the cost of capital and its two forms - ROE (the expected return on equity, the cost of equity to the business) and WACC (the Weighted Average Cost of Capital to the business). | | | The Cost of Capital can be a powerful and useful management tool but, to realise this potential, it has to be calculated correctly and used appropriately. |

| | Estimating Cost of Capital Using Bottom-up Betas |
| | The cost of debt is measured by the current level of interest rates, the default risk of the company, and the tax advantage associated with debt. | | | The estimated cost of capital should be based on the market values of a company’s debt and equity, since a company has to earn more than its market value cost of capital to generate value. | | | The use of a bottom-up beta in computing the cost of equity component of the cost of capital is an exceptional method of capturing all types of risk. |

| | Normally, the cost of equity finance is higher than the cost debt finance, because the cost of equity involves a risk premium. | | | More elusive however, is the cost of equity finance. | | | The cost of capital for any investment, whether for an entire company or for a project, is the rate of return capital providers would expect to receive if they would invest their capital elsewhere. |

| | Online Tutorial #8: How Do You Calculate A Company's Cost of Capital? |
| | The cost of debt capital is equivalent to actual or imputed interest rate on the company's debt, adjusted for the tax-deductibility of interest expenses. | | | A company's marginal cost of long-term debt may be better estimated by summing the risk-free rate and the "credit spread" that lenders would charge a company with a specific credit rating. | | | First, we calculate or infer the cost of each kind of capital that the enterprise uses, namely debt and equity. |

| | The Cost of Capital and its Impact - By: Kirby D. Payne, CHA, July, 1997 |
| | Their costs are the interest on the debt, the investors' expected return on equity and the cost of obtaining the capital itself. | | | As a further point, because their cost of capital was so much lower their earnings expectations do not need to be as high as the smaller entity with the higher cost of capital. | | | Some of the cost of raising capital can initially be folded back into the debt or equity but in the end it is paid for with additional interest or less profit distribution. |

| | The Principles Determining the Cost of Capital |
| | The cost of capital is the discount rate which makes the quantity of funds it needs for investment projects equal to the quantity of funds it has available at that cost of capital. | | | The determination of the cost of capital for a firm can be considered a matter of confronting the firm's demand schedule for investment funds with its supply schedule of investment funds. | | | The effect of the tax-deductibility of interest is to shift downward (outward) the supply of capital schedule thereby reducing the equilibrium cost of capital. |
