The cost of equity
The cost of equity is the return required by equity investors given the risk of the cash
flows from the firm
There are two major methods for determining the cost of equity:
o Dividend growth model
o SML, or the CAPM
The dividend growth model (the Gordon model)

Dividend growth model example
Suppose that your company is expected to pay a dividend of $1.50 per share next year.
There has been a steady growth in dividends of 5.1% per year and the market expects that
to continue. The current price is $25.

Dividend growth model
Advantages:
o Easy to understand and use
Disadvantages:
o Only applicable to companies currently paying dividends
o Not applicable if dividends aren’t growing at a reasonably constant rate
o Extremely sensitive to the estimated growth rate an increase in g of 1% increases
the cost of equity by 1%
Does not explicitly consider risk
The SML approach
Use the following information to compute our cost of equity:
Risk-free rate, Rf
Market risk premium, E(RM) Rf
Systematic risk of asset,

Example- SML
Suppose your company has:
o an equity beta of .58
o the current risk-free rate is 6.1%
o the expected market risk premium is 8.6%
o What is the cost of equity using the SML valuation technique?
o RE = 6.1 + .58(8.6) = 11.1%
SML
Advantages:
o Explicitly adjusts for systematic risk
o Applicable to all companies, as long as we can estimate beta
Disadvantages:
o Have to estimate the expected market risk premium, which does vary over time
o Have to estimate beta, which also varies over time
o We are using the past to predict the future, which is not always reliable

Practice- cost of equity
Our company has a beta of 1.5.
The market risk premium is expected to be 9%, and the current risk-free rate is 6%.
We have used analysts’ estimates to determine that the market believes our dividends will
grow at 6% per year and our last dividend was $2.
Our stock is currently selling for $15.65.
What is our cost of equity using the SML?
o 19.5%
What is our cost of equity using the DGM?
o 19.55%
Cost of debt
The cost of debt is the required return on our company’s debt
The required return is best estimated by computing the yield-to-maturity on the existing
long-term debt (the YTM).
The computation of the YTM was presented in the chapter on Bond Valuation
Example- cost of debt: computing the YTM
Suppose we have a corporate bond issue currently outstanding that has 25 years left to
maturity.
o The coupon rate is 9%, and coupons are paid semiannually.
o The bond is currently selling for $908.72 per $1,000 bond.
