Study Notes

Stock Valuation

  • Stock represents corporation fundraising
  • Investors own CS share and receive dividends
  • Stock valuation aims to determine the optimal selling price for a company's shares
  • Constant growth model (Gordon model) estimates stock value based on constant dividend growth.
  • Formula: P₀ = D₁ / (rₐ - g)
  • P₀ = current stock price
  • D₁ = next year's dividend
  • rₐ = required rate of return
  • g = constant growth rate
  • Example: ABC Company's last dividend is 1.60, annual growth is 10%, and required rate is 16%. Stock value = 28.27 EGP

Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM)

  • CAPM helps determine the required rate of return for an investment
  • Formula: rⱼ = Rf + [βⱼ × (rm - Rf)]
  • rⱼ = required return on asset j
  • Rf = risk-free rate
  • βⱼ = beta of asset j
  • rm = market return
  • Example: A corporation with a beta of 1.5, Rf = 12%, and rm = 16% has a required return of 18%.
  • Market risk premium (rm - Rf) = 4%
  • Security risk premium (βⱼ × (rm - Rf)) = 6%

Capital Budgeting and Cost of Capital

  • Cost of capital is the minimum return needed for a capital budgeting project.
  • It includes costs of equity financing and debt financing.
  • Weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is the average of the cost of all capital sources
  • Formula WACC = (w₁r₁) + (wp rp) + (ws rs)
  • w₁ = weight of debt
  • wₚ= weight of preferred stock
  • wₛ= weight of common stock
  • r₁ = cost of debt
  • rp = cost of preferred stock
  • rs = cost of common stock

Cost of Debt

  • Company calculates the cost of debt considering interest payments.
  • The after-tax cost of debt is calculated using the formula: rᵢ = rₐ x (1 - T), where rᵢ = after-tax cost of debt, rₐ = before-tax cost of debt, and T = tax rate.

Cost of Preferred Stock

  • Cost of preferred stock (rp) is the ratio of the dividend to the price of preferred stock
