Document Summary

Both the cost of debt and the cost of equity are based on future income flows, and the risk associated with such returns. The cost of servicing debt capital is the yearly or half yearly interest payment, which is an allowable expense for tax. The cost of irredeemable loan capital to a company may be calculated as follows: d = i x (1- t) L where d = cost of debt capital i = annual loan interest rate. L = the current market value of the loan t = the rate of corporation tax. The market value of the debt is dependent on the level of future returns, the interest rate paid, which is determined by the level of risk associated with the investment. In the case of equity or ordinary shares the future income is dividends. A difference between this method and the method applied to debt is that there is no tax relief for dividend payments.
