Agenda • Cost of Equity • Cost of Debt • WACC
CAPM • Find rEq using Capital Asset Pricing Model 3 inputs needed: Risk free return Market return Beta
Input 1 – Risk Free Rate • Monthly price of 30 Years Treasury Yield Bond • 60 months collected from Yahoo! Finance • Annualized return: 2.78%
Input 2 – Market Return • Monthly price of S&P 500 Index • 60 months collected from Yahoo! Finance • Annualized return: 17.98%
Input 3 - Beta • Three options: • Calculate myself • Bloomberg • Other sites
Beta – Calculate Myself • Run a regression in Excel • Dependent variable: WMT • Independent variable: S&P 500
Beta – Calculate Myself Beta: 0.310 Represents how “sensitive” Walmart’s stock value is to entire market. Walmart seems pretty insensitive. Makes sense. Sells non-luxury goods and essentials
Beta – Calculate Myself Intercept: 0.006 Represents return on equity if beta were zero. Value is independent of market. Could be seen as risk free rate (e.g. treasury bond).
Beta – Calculate Myself Standard error Represents part of return unexplained by just Beta. Could reduce this by using more complex multi-variable model.
Input 3 - Beta • Three options: • Calculate myself - 0.310 • Bloomberg • Other sites
Beta - Bloomberg • Beta: 0.490
Input 3 - Beta • Three options: • Calculate myself - 0.310 • Bloomberg - 0.490 • Other sites
Input 3 - Beta • Three options: • Calculate myself - 0.310 • Bloomberg - 0.490 • Other sites - 0.408 • Which beta do I use?
Input 3 - Beta • Three options: • Calculate myself - 0.310 • Bloomberg - 0.490 • Other sites - 0.408 • Use average:0.403
CAPM • rf= 2.78% • rMkt= 17.98% • β = 0.403 • re = 7.10%
Two Methods • RNFL Method • Borrowing Rate Method
1. RNFL Method • RNFL ≈ rd • Utilize reformulated financial statements
1. RNFL Method • Average RNFL - 2.63%
Two Methods • RNFL Method - 2.63% • Borrowing Rate Method
2. Borrowing Rate Method • rD = Pretax borrowing rate X (1 – Tax rate) • Where to find borrowing rate?
Footnote • \ • “Thereafter” best indicator of long term?
2. Borrowing Rate Method • rD= 5.3% X (1 - 37%) = 3.34%
Two Methods • RNFL Method - 2.63% • Borrowing Rate Method 3.34%
Final Cost of Debt • RNFL Method - 2.63% • Borrowing Rate Method 3.34% Average (rd to use for WACC): 2.99%
WACC Calculation • VD – Book value of NFL • VEq= Market cap of WMT • VEnt= Sum of net debt and equity
WACC Calculation • VD– $60,050 • VEq= $242,040 • VEnt= $302,090
WACC Calculation • Plug in everything • WACC = 6.28%
Bloomberg • My WACC: 6.28% • Bloomberg: 6.50%
