The weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is the discount rate used in the discounted cash flow analysis. Usually, the WACC is the weighted average of the cost of debt (Kd) and the cost of equity (Ke), since debt and equity are the most common sources of funds for the companies. In general, the formula for WACC is the following:…
Is equal to the annual net cash flows divided by one half of the project’s cost when the cash flows are an annuity…
WACC= (%of debt) (after-tax cost of debt) + (% of preferred stock)(Cost of preferred stock) + (% of common equity) (Cost of common equity)…

We decided to calculate our own WACC because we disagreed with the assumptions Joanna made. We found the WACC to be 6.59%. To calculate this we used the market values of debt and equity so our weights for each were 10.05% and 89.95% respectively. This was one main difference between our WACC and Joanna’s. We also had a difference in our returns for debt and equity as well. We found a return on debt to be 7.16% and our return on equity was 6.835%. Joanna decided to use a return on debt and equity of 2.7% and 10.5% respectively.…

The adjusted present value approach gives the highest net present value for the project due to the tax benefits of maintaining $750,000 of debt in perpetuity. However, this model assumes that Bdebt = 0. This assumption is inaccurate given that there is some systematic risk inherent in debt; combined with the additional risk of expanding…
Market value of debt | 0.00 | 2,500.00 | 5,000.00 | Market value of equity | 10,000.00 | 8,350.00 | 6,700.00 | Pretax cost of debt | 5% | 5% | 5% | After-tax cost of debt | 3.3% | 3.3% | 3.3% | | | | | Market value weight of: | | | | Debt | 0.00 | 0.20 | 0.40 | Equity | 1.00 | 0.80 | 0.60 |…
To find Nike’s cost of debt, we used three different methods: the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) (Exhibit 7), the Dividend Discount Model (DDM) (Exhibit 5), and the Earnings Capitalization Model (ECM) (Exhibit 8). We decided that the CAPM gave us the most accurate estimate of Nike’s cost of debt, and we used that in arriving at our before-tax cost of debt of 7.173% and our final after-tax cost of debt of 4.447% (Exhibit 6). To find our WACC, we used the market value of equity and debt to determine our weights of equity and debt. Our weight of equity is 89.947% and our weight of debt is 10.053%. Using the above numbers, we calculated a WACC of 7.338% (Exhibit 9).…

24. We can use the debt-equity ratio to calculate the weights of equity and debt. The debt of the company has a weight for long-term debt and a weight for accounts payable. We can use the weight given for accounts payable to calculate the weight of accounts payable and the weight of long-term debt. The weight of each will be:…

One of the first errors regarding the analysis in the case is that the employee calculated equity as a portion of total capital based on the company book value of $3,494.5. It is more appropriate to value the equity based on current market value. The current market value of the firm as shown in the analysis is 11,427.44 (in millions). Therefore the weights of debt and equity are 11.27% & 88.73%, respectively.…
