CALCULATING 3Ms COST OF CAPITAL In this chapter, we described how to estimate a companys WACC, which is the weighted average of its costs of debt, preferred stock, and common equity. Most of the data we need to do this can be found from various data sources on the Internet. Here we walk through the steps used to calculate Minnesota Mining Manufacturings (MMM) WACC. 3. Next, we need to calculate MMMs cost of debt. We can use different approaches to estimate it. One approach is to take the companys interest expense and divide it by total debt (which is the sum of short-term debt and long-term debt). This approach only works if the historical cost of debt equals the yield to maturity in todays market (i.e., if MMMs outstanding bonds are trading at close to par). This approach may produce misleading estimates in years in which MMM issues a significant amount of new debt. For example, if a company issues a great deal of debt at the end of the year, the full amount of debt will appear on the year-end balance sheet, yet we still may not see a sharp increase in annual interest expense because the debt was outstanding for only a small portion of the entire year. When this situation occurs, the estimated cost of debt will likely understate the true cost of debt. Another approach is to try to find this number in the notes to the companys annual report by accessing the companys home page and its Investor Relations section. Alternatively, you can go to other external sources, such as bondsonline.com, for corporate bond spreads, which can be used to find estimates of the cost of debt. Remember that you need the after-tax cost of debt to calculate a firms WACC, so you will need MMMs tax rate (which has averaged around 30% in recent years). What is your estimate of MMMs after-tax cost of debt?

Here is the problem: Famas's LLamas has a weighted average cost of capital of 7.9%. The company's cost of equity is 11% and its pretaxt cost of debt is 5.8%. The taxt rate is 25%. What is the company's target debt-equity ratio? Here is the solution: Here we have the WACC and need to find the debt-equity ratio of the company. Setting up the WACC equation, we find: WACC = .0790 = .11(E/V) + .058(D/V)(1 – .25) Rearranging the equation, we find: .0790(V/E) = .11 + .058(.75)(D/E) Now we must realize that the V/E is just the equity multiplier, which is equal to: V/E = 1 + D/E .0790(D/E + 1) = .11 + .0435(D/E) Now we can solve for D/E as: .0355(D/E) = .031 D/E = .8732 Question: I need help especifically with the part where they rearrange the equation as: .0790(V/E) = .11 + .058(.75)(D/E). How do they get an inverse (V/E) on the left side without the .11. And how do they get a (D/E) ratio. I understand…
