Mergers and acquisitions - Financing options
1 Shares in treasury: it increases financial slack (if they don’t have to be repurchased on the market), may improve debt rating and reduce cost
of debt. Transaction costs include brokerage fees if shares are
repurchased in the market otherwise there are no major costs.

Economics of new nuclear power plants - Capital costs
1 Some analysts argue (for example Steve Thomas, Professor of Energy Studies at the University of
Greenwich in the UK, quoted in the book The Doomsday Machine (2012 book)|The Doomsday Machine by Martin
Cohen and Andrew McKillop ]) that what is often not appreciated in debates about the economics of nuclear power is that the cost of equity, that is companies using
their own money to pay for new plants, is generally higher than the cost of debt.The Doomsday Machine,
Cohen and McKillop (Palgrave 2012) page 199 Another advantage of borrowing may be that once large loans
have been arranged at low interest rates - perhaps with government support - the money can then be lent out at
higher rates of return.

Corporate finance - Capitalization structure
1 The cost of equity (see Capital asset pricing model|CAPM and arbitrage pricing theory|APT) is also typically higher than the cost of debt - which is,
additionally, a deductible expense – and so equity financing may result in an increased hurdle rate
which may offset any reduction in cash flow risk.See:[

Leverage (finance) - Worked example
1 Interest rate differential = Return on investment less Cost of debt = 5% - 4% = 1%

Business valuation - Weighted average cost of capital (WACC)
1 The weighted average cost of capital is an approach to determining a discount rate. The
weighted average cost of capital|WACC method determines the subject company’s
actual cost of capital by calculating the weighted average of the company’s interest
(finance)|cost of debt and cost of stock|equity. The weighted average cost of capital|
WACC must be applied to the subject company’s net cash flow to total invested
capital.

Time value of money - Calculations
1 The rate of return in the calculations can be either the variable solved for, or a predefined variable that measures a
discount rate, interest, inflation, rate of return, cost of equity, cost of debt or any
number of other analogous concepts. The choice of the appropriate rate is
critical to the exercise, and the use of an incorrect discount rate will make the
results meaningless.

future interest and :wikt:principal|principal payments at the cost of
debt and adds the present value of the warrant (finance)|warrant

Undercapitalization - Capital sources
1 * Debt is more expensive. The cost of debt is lowest with secured, long-
term loans or use of personal savings, higher with unsecured loans, credit card loans and cash advances, and with factoring (finance)|factoring
accounts receivable.

Tax shield - Case B
1 The reason that he was able to earn additional income is because the cost
of debt (i.e. 8%) is less than the return earned on the investment (i.e.
10%). The 2% difference makes income of $80 and another $100 is
made by the return on equity capital. Total income becomes $180 which
becomes taxable at 20%.

Adjusted present value
1 Technically, an APV valuation model looks similar to a standard
Discounted cash flow|DCF model. However, instead of weighted
average cost of capital|WACC, cash flows would be discounted at the unlevered cost of equity, and tax shields at either the cost of debt
(Myers) or following later academics also with the unlevered cost of
equity.http://www.iese.edu/research/pdfs/DI-0488-E.pdf

Cost of capital - Summary
1 A company's securities typically include both debt and equity, one must therefore calculate both the
cost of debt and the cost of equity to determine a company's cost of
capital

Cost of capital - Summary
1 For companies with similar risk or Bond credit rating|credit ratings, the
interest rate is largely exogenous (not linked to the cost of debt), the cost of equity is broadly defined as the risk-weighted projected return required by investors, where the
return is largely unknown

Cost of capital - Summary
1 Once cost of debt and cost of equity have been determined, their blend, the weighted-average cost of capital
(WACC), can be calculated. This WACC can then be used as a Annual effective discount rate|discount rate for a project's projected cash flows.

Cost of capital - Cost of debt
1 Since in most cases debt expense is a deductible expense, the cost of
debt is computed as an after tax cost to make it comparable with the cost of equity (earnings are After Taxes|
after-tax as well)

Return on equity - The DuPont formula
1 So if the firm takes on too much debt, the cost of debt rises as creditors demand a higher risk
premium, and ROE decreases.Woolridge, J

Bankruptcy costs
1 In the Trade-Off Theory of capital structure, firms are supposedly
choosing their level of debt financing by trading off these bankruptcy costs of debt against tax benefits of debt. In particular, a firm that is trying to
maximize the value for its shareholders will equalize the
marginal cost of debt that results from these bankruptcy costs with the marginal benefit of debt that results
from tax benefits.

Hamada's equation
1 # The discount rate used to calculate the tax shield is assumed to be equal to the cost of debt capital (thus, the
tax shield has the same risk as debt). This and the constant debt
assumption in (1) imply that the tax shield is proportionate to the market
value of debt: Tax Shield = T×D.
