"Cost of Capital," Yves Courtois, Gene C. Lai, and Pamela P. Peterson 2008 Modular Level I, Vol. 4, pp. 45-46 Study Session 11-45-b, f describe how taxes affect the cost of capital from different capital sources; calculate and interpret the cost of fixed-rate debt capital using the yield-to-maturity approach and the debt-rating approach The cost of debt to be used in the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) would be the yield-to-maturity after tax. Coupon payment = 0.06 / 2 x 1,000 = 30. To obtain the pre-tax yield to maturity, solve the following equation for i:
i = 4% per period, or 8% per year. After-tax cost of debt = 8 x (1 - 0.35) = 5.2% FV = 1,000; PV = -864; PMT = 30; N = 20. Compute I / Y. I / Y = 4% semi-annual. Annual = 4 x 2 = 8%. After-tax cost of debt = 8 x (1 - 0.35) = 5.2%
