    • @bencekarsai6413
      @bencekarsai6413 11 місяців тому

      No, actually you are wrong. rE is not equal to rA - which you are referring to. rE= (E+D)/E * rA - D/E * rD ! whereas rD is the capital cost of debt which is more or less rF (risk free) - depending on how someone interpret it (you can add country risk to rF)

    • @woeiruty123
      @woeiruty123 5 років тому +20

      I know it has been 2 years, but it might help someone reading the comments later on like I did. The cost of debt is the interest rate that you have to pay for a loan. If you have multiple loans, you can calculate all of the seperate interest payments (per loan) -> Adding them all up and then divide them by the total debt.
      The cost of equity is the price that the shareholders expect to be paid. Sometimes it's given, but you can also calculate it with the Capital Asset Pricing Model. Edspira also made a video on that subject here: ua-cam.com/video/fDz_DgDJD5g/v-deo.html

      By "WD" I assume your prof is referring to the proportion of debt financing, while "CD" means the cost of debt. For example, if the company was financed 80% by common stock at a cost of 10% and 20% by debt a cost of 12% (assuming no preferred stock), the WACC would be (80%*10%) + (20%*12%).
