Introduction
The bast estimate for the value of the
company or an asset is the value of
the returns that it will yield or income
that it will generate.
Cost of Capital
• Cost of Capital is the rate of return necessary to maintain value or stock price of a
firm.
• The cost of using funds; it is also called the hurdle rate, required rate of return, or
cut-off rate.
• The weighted average rate of return the company must pay to its long-term
creditors and shareholders for the use of their funds.
• Cost of Capital is used for; (1) making capital budgeting decisions, (2) making long-
term financing decisions, and (3) helping establish the optimal capital structure.
• Cost of Capital is computed as a weighted average of the various long-term capital
sources that are items mostly found on the right-hand side of the balance sheet
such as long-term debt, preferred stock, common stock and retained earnings.

Stockholders
• Dividend per share = preferred dividend rate x par value per share.
• Market price per share should be net of any floatation cost or issue cost.
• FLOTATION COST is the cost of issuing or ‘floating’ securities in the market,
normally incurred by issuing Initial Public Offering (IPO) shares in the exchange
market. The typical costs of selling stock include underwriter’s spread, direct
expenses, indirect expenses, abnormal returns, underpricing.
• Unlike the cost of common stock, growth rate is not added to the preferred dividend
yield since preferred dividends are relatively fixed every year.
• Tax is not considered since dividends paid are not deductible for tax purposes (i.e.,
no tax shield).
