Chapter # 03

Cost of Finance
Zero Coupon Debentures:
Post tax cost of debt = {(Redemption value ÷ Issue value*) 1/n – 1} x (1 – tax)
Where:
n = years to redemption.
*Market value shall be used in case of previously issued debentures.

Illustrative Example # 01:


Z Limited has just issued zero coupon bond at 40% discount which are redeemable at par (Rs. 100) in 8 years’ time. Income tax rate is 30%.
Required:
Calculate cost of debt for use in calculation of WACC.

Answer:
Post tax cost of debt = {(Redemption value ÷ Issue value) 1/n – 1} x (1 – tax)
Post tax cost of debt = {(Rs. 100 ÷ Rs. 60) 1/8 – 1} x (1 – 0.30) = 4.62%

Illustrative Example # 02:


Five years ago C Limited issued zero coupon bond at 50% discount on par value (Rs. 100) which are currently trading at Rs. 65. Bonds are
redeemable at 5% premium after 6 years. Income tax rate is 30%.
Required:
Calculate post tax cost of debt.

Answer:
Post tax cost of debt = {(Redemption value ÷ Issue value) 1/n – 1} x (1 – tax)
Post tax cost of debt = {(Rs. 105 ÷ Rs. 64) 1/6 – 1} x (1 – 0.30) = 6.02%
LO 04: WEIGHTED AVERAGE COST OF CAPITAL (WACC):
The weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is a weighted average of the (after-tax) cost of all the
sources of capital for the company. The different costs are weighted according to their market values.
This can be done using following formula:

(𝑬𝒒𝒖𝒊𝒕𝒚 𝒙 𝒌𝒆)+(𝑫𝒆𝒃𝒕 𝒙 𝒌𝒅)


WACC =
𝑬𝒒𝒖𝒊𝒕𝒚+𝑫𝒆𝒃𝒕
Example # 25:
A company has 10 million shares each with a value of Rs.4.20, whose cost is 7.5%. It has Rs.30 million of 5% bonds with a
market value of 101.00 and an after-tax cost of 3.5%.
