Weighted Average Cost of Capital
For a firm overall, it is based on the riskiness of the firm's assets
While it is generally estimated by looking at the right-hand-side of the balance sheet, it is largely driven by the left-hand-side (i.e., assets)

(Hint: Work Problem 4-16 before answering 4-17, and consider the solution setup for 4-16 as you think about 4-17.) a. If a firms expected basic earning power (BEP) is constant for all of its assets and exceeds the interest rate on its debt, adding assets and financing them with debt will raise the firms expected return on common equity (ROE). b. The higher a firms tax rate, the lower its BEP ratio, other things held constant. c. The higher the interest rate on a firms debt, the lower its BEP ratio, other things held constant. d. The higher a firms debt ratio, the lower its BEP ratio, other things held constant. e. Statement a is false, but statements b, c, and d are true.arrow_forwardCALCULATING 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. 1. As a first step, we need to estimate what percentage of MMMs capital comes from debt, preferred stock, and common equity. This information can be found on the firms latest annual balance sheet. (As of year end 2013, MMM had no preferred stock.) Total debt includes all interest-bearing debt and is the sum of short-term debt and long-term debt. a. Recall that the weights used in the WACC are based on the companys target capital structure. If we assume that the company wants to maintain the same mix of capital that it currently has on its balance sheet, what weights should you use to estimate the WACC for MMM? b. Find MMMs market capitalization, which is the market value of its common equity. Using the sum of its short-term debt and long-term debt from the balance sheet (we assume that the market value of its debt equals its book value) and its market capitalization, recalculate the firms debt and common equity weights to be used in the WACC equation. These weights are approximations of market-value weights. Be sure not to include accruals in the debt calculation.arrow_forward
