Cost of Capital
u Risk-adjusted discount rate (k)
u The risk of a particular project may be different from
the risk of the firm’s existing assets
u The risk that is relevant in computing a project’s cost
of capital is the risk of the project’s cash flows and not
the risk of the financing instruments (e.g.,stocks,
bonds) the firm issues to finance the project
u The cost of capital should reflect only the market-
related risk of the project (its beta)

u 25-year U.S,Treasury bonds paying $100 per year are
selling in the market at $1,000
u A firm has the opportunity to buy $1 million worth of
these bonds for $950 each
u The firm’s overall (average) cost of capital is 16%
u If discounted at 16%,the NPV of the opportunity is -
$340,291
u However,no one will forgo the opportunity
u The correct cost of capital is 10%

u An all-equity financed firm with tree divisions,
– An electronics division,30% of the firm’s market value,cost of
capital 22%
– A chemical division,40% of the firm’s market value,cost of capital
17%
– A natural gas transmission division,30% of the firm’s market value,
cost of capital 14%
– The cost of capital for the firm is,3*22%+.4*17%+.3*14%=17.6%
u If 17.6% is adopted as discount rate for all projects,then it is
likely
– to accept projects in the electronics division with negative NPV
– to pass up profitable natural gas transmission

u An all-equity financed steel company considering the acquisition of an
integrated oil company that is 60% crude oil reserves and 40% refining
– The market capitalization rate on crude oil investments is 18.6%
and on refining projects is 17.6%
– The market capitalization rate on the oil company shares is 18.2%
– The market capitalization rate for steel projects is 15.3%
u The market price of the oil company’s shares is,fair” ($100,expected
return 18.2%)
u An investment banker reports that all the shares could be acquired for a
tender offer bid of $110 per share
– With 15.3%,the NPV of the acquisition is –110+18.2/.153=$9
– With 18.2%,the NPV of the acquisition is –110+18.2/.182=-$10

u Compusell Corporation is planning to finance the
$5 million outlay required to undertake the
PC1000 project by issuing bonds
u Compusell has a high credit rating because it has
almost no debt outstanding and therefore can
issue $5 million worth of bonds at an interest rate
of 6% per year
u It would be a mistake to use 6% as the cost of
capital in computing the NPV of the PC1000
project

Inflation and Capital Budgeting
u Rule,There are two correct ways of
computing NPV,
– Use the nominal cost of capital to discount
nominal cash flows,
– Use the real cost of capital to discount real cash
flows
– Never compare the IRR computed using real
cash flow estimates to a nominal cost of capital,
