If a company has more debt than the rest of the Adaptec (ADPT) WACC (/wacc-analysis:adpt) industry, we assume company-specific debt level will match the industry level in the future. The same assumption is made for equity, taxes, beta and many other variables Alliance Data (ADS) WACC (/wacc-analysis:ads) that go into the WACC calculation. Autodesk (ADSK) WACC (/wacc-analysis:adsk) Adtran (ADTN) WACC (/wacc-analysis:adtn) Advent Software (ADVS) WACC (/wacc-analysis:advs) Associated Estates Realty (AEC) WACC (/wacc-analysis:aec) We use the CAPM (/dictionary:capm) (capital asset pricing model) to determine the cost of equity (/dictionary:required-return-of-equity). CAPM equals the risk free rate plus Ameren (AEE) WACC (/wacc-analysis:aee) beta times the market risk premium. The cost of equity is the rate a target company would have to pay for equity capital (financing) such as in an IPO. Aegon NV (AEG) WACC (/wacc-analysis:aeg) Advanced Energy Inds (AEIS) WACC (/wacc-analysis:aeis) American Equity (AEL) WACC (/wacc-analysis:ael) Agnico-Eagle Mines (AEM) WACC (/wacc-analysis:aem) Risk free rate (/dictionary:risk-free-rate): we use a risk-free rate equal to the US Treasury 20 year benchmark. This rate is risk free, because the US government is American Eagle (AEO) WACC (/wacc-analysis:aeo) considered the closest measure of a risk free investment. American Electric Power (AEP) WACC (/wacc-analysis:aep) If the target company is foreign, we would use the appropriate government risk free rate in their domestic market. AEP Industries (AEPI) WACC (/wacc-analysis:aepi) We use the 20 year rate, because an investor is expected to hold a long term investment for 20 years. Why not a 30 year risk free rate? The 30 year rate is usually Aercap (AER) WACC (/wacc-analysis:aer) lower than the 20 year rate, because of the market’s lopsided demand for longer duration securities. The most conservative number to use is the 20 year rate. AES Corp (AES) WACC (/wacc-analysis:aes) Beta (/dictionary:beta): This determines the risk of an investment as compared to the stock market in general. If the beta of an investment is 2.0, then it would move with twice Aetna (AET) WACC (/wacc-analysis:aet) the magnitude of the market. For example, if the market was down 5%, a beta of 2.0 means that your investment would drop by 10%. Astoria (AF) WACC (/wacc-analysis:af) Ideally, the beta should measure the expected future risk of the company. Most beta measures take the historical beta (or regression versus the stock market in the Almost Family (AFAM) WACC (/wacc-analysis:afam) past) and assume the relationship would stay the same going forward. AFC Enterprises (AFCE) WACC (/wacc-analysis:afce) Wikiwealth currently uses a beta calculated by a proprietary source, but this will change in the near future. In an effort to be more transparent, Wikiwealth will calculate Affymetrix (AFFX) WACC (/wacc-analysis:affx) the beta using historical regressions versus the stock market. Affymax (AFFY) WACC (/wacc-analysis:affy) American Financial (AFG) WACC (/wacc-analysis:afg) Market Risk Premium: The market risk premium equals the equity risk premium (/dictionary:equity-risk-premium) minus the risk free rate. AFLAC (AFL) WACC (/wacc-analysis:afl) The equity risk premium is the amount of return an investor expects from equity investments. It is calculated using historical information. The risk free rate is explained AmTrust Financial (AFSI) WACC (/wacc-analysis:afsi) above. Agco (AGCO) WACC (/wacc-analysis:agco) Wikiwealth uses a market risk premium of 5%, which is the long-term conservative risk premium for the market. Argo Group (AGII) WACC (/wacc-analysis:agii) AGL Resources (AGL) WACC (/wacc-analysis:agl) Allergan (AGN) WACC (/wacc-analysis:agn) Advertisement (http://www.marketbeat.com/affiliate-program/) Wikiwealth uses the BBB corporate bond yield to determine the cost of debt. There are several assumptions underlying this measure. The cost of debt is the rate a target American Capital Agency (AGNC) WACC (/wacc-analysis:agnc) company would have to pay for debt capital (financing) such as in a debt offering to the public. Assured Guaranty (AGO) WACC (/wacc-analysis:ago) The BBB measure is the assumed average measure of the debt rating for the target company. If the debt rating is significantly different from the market, then we would AMERIGROUP (AGP) WACC (/wacc-analysis:agp) use a different corporate bond yield, like AAA or CCC. We rarely diverge from the BBB average unless the entire industry was significantly different from BBB. The BBB Agrium (AGU) WACC (/wacc-analysis:agu) rating equates to the risk of the target companies debt. Agilysys (AGYS) WACC (/wacc-analysis:agys) We use the 20 year bond rating, because 20 years matches the expected holding period of the investment. Allied HealthCare (AHCI) WACC (/wacc-analysis:ahci) After-tax cost: Wikiwealth uses the after-tax cost of debt, because companies get a tax shield on interest expenses. Alliance (AHGP) WACC (/wacc-analysis:ahgp) The tax rate (/dictionary:alpha) is the domestic corporate tax rate. For US companies, this rate equals 40%, which is the federal and state blended tax rate. Aspen Insurance (AHL) WACC (/wacc-analysis:ahl) Foreign companies use different tax rate. Allied Healthcare (AHPI) WACC (/wacc-analysis:ahpi) AMN Healthcare (AHS) WACC (/wacc-analysis:ahs) AIG (AIG) WACC (/wacc-analysis:aig) Altra Holdings (AIMC) WACC (/wacc-analysis:aimc) The equation equals the percentage of equity divided by total capital in a company. Albany International (AIN) WACC (/wacc-analysis:ain) Enter your email address below to receive a concise Equity equals the stock price multiplied by the shares outstanding.

Air T (AIRT) WACC (/wacc-analysis:airt) Wikiwealth adds long term and short term interest bearing debt plus capital leases, preferred debt and minority interest to equal total debt in a target company. These are all Airvana (AIRV) WACC (/wacc-analysis:airv) the debt holders in the company who have claim to the equity of the company in case of bankruptcy. Applied Industrial Tech (AIT) WACC (/wacc-analysis:ait) Your Email Address Why do we use interest-bearing debt (/dictionary:interest-bearing-debt)? This is the return owed to debt holders of the company. In the cash flow valuation, we determine Apartment Investment (AIV) WACC (/wacc-analysis:aiv) the value of the total company to both equity and debt holders combined. So part of the cash flow goes to debt holders and the rest goes to equity holders. Aixtron (AIXG) WACC (/wacc-analysis:aixg) We find cash flow to both debt and equity combined, because it requires fewer assumptions and is thus a less risky valuation model.

Gallagher (AJG) WACC (/wacc-analysis:ajg) Akamai Tech (AKAM) WACC (/wacc-analysis:akam) Acadia Realty Trust (AKR) WACC (/wacc-analysis:akr) This is the added premium needed by investors in order to invest in risky countries. The CPR is added to the cost of equity (required return on equity). Akorn (AKRX) WACC (/wacc-analysis:akrx) There is no risk premium for the United States or many other developed countries with fluid capital markets. AK Steel Holding (AKS) WACC (/wacc-analysis:aks) Albemarle (ALB) WACC (/wacc-analysis:alb) Assisted Living Concepts (ALC) WACC (/wacc-analysis:alc) Alico (ALCO) WACC (/wacc-analysis:alco) The risk factors not incorporated into the financial data of a company, such as in the case of bankruptcy or other financial distress.

A non-rounded number creates the illusion of Alon USA Energy (ALJ) WACC (/wacc-analysis:alj) perfection and contributes to manipulation of the results. Hopefully, only fundamental changes will cause differences in the value of the WACC (/dictionary:wacc-discount-rate) Alaska Air (ALK) WACC (/wacc-analysis:alk) and thus the company’s value. Alkermes (ALKS) WACC (/wacc-analysis:alks) Allstate (ALL) WACC (/wacc-analysis:all) Alliance Financial (ALNC) WACC (/wacc-analysis:alnc) Analogic (ALOG) WACC (/wacc-analysis:alog) Alloy (ALOY) WACC (/wacc-analysis:aloy) Alaska Communications (ALSK) WACC (/wacc-analysis:alsk) Alterra Capital Holdings (ALTE) WACC (/wacc-analysis:alte) Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC). The two components of capital include the cost of debt and the cost of equity capital. The weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is Altera (ALTR) WACC (/wacc-analysis:altr) the rate that a company is expected to pay to finance its assets. WACC is the minimum return that a company must earn on their existing asset base to satisfy its creditors, Alcatel (ALU) WACC (/wacc-analysis:alu) owners, and other providers of capital. Autoliv (ALV) WACC (/wacc-analysis:alv) The Industry WACC is an average WACC measurement for companies in an industry. The Industry WACC used Alexander's (ALX) WACC (/wacc-analysis:alx) statistics such as debt, equity, tax rate, beta measurements to find the correct average WACC for an industry. Wikiwealth Alexza Pharma (ALXA) WACC (/wacc-analysis:alxa) applies the industry WACC to individual companies to find a stable and optimal WACC discount rate for that particular Allis-Chalmers (ALY) WACC (/wacc-analysis:aly) company. All individual companies are expected to converge to the industry WACC over time. American Greetings (AM) WACC (/wacc-analysis:am) Applied Materials (AMAT) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amat) Companies raise money from a number of sources: common equity, preferred equity, straight debt, convertible debt, exchangeable debt, warrants, options, pension liabilities, AMB Property (AMB) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amb) executive stock options, governmental subsidies, and so on. Different securities are expected to generate different returns. WACC is calculated taking into account the relative Applied Micro Circuits (AMCC) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amcc) weights of each component of the capital structure. Calculation of WACC for a company with a complex capital structure is a laborious exercise. AirMedia (AMCN) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amcn) WACC = wd (1-T) rd + we re AMICAS (AMCS) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amcs) Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amd) wd = debt portion of value of corporation Ametek (AME) WACC (/wacc-analysis:ame) T = tax rate Amedisys (AMED) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amed) rd = cost of debt (rate) Affiliated Managers (AMG) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amg) we = equity portion of value of corporation Amgen (AMGN) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amgn) re = cost of internal equity (rate) American Independence (AMIC) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amic) Amkor Tech (AMKR) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amkr) Amylin Pharma (AMLN) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amln) Since we are measuring expected cost of new capital, we should use the market values of the components, rather than their book values (which can be significantly different). In American Medical (AMMD) WACC (/wacc-analysis:ammd) addition, other, more "exotic" sources of financing, such as convertible/callable bonds, convertible preferred stock, etc., would normally be included in the formula if they exist in any Ameron Intl (AMN) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amn) significant amounts - since the cost of those financing methods is usually different from the plain vanilla bonds and equity due to their extra features. Ameriprise Financial (AMP) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amp) American Physicians (AMPH) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amph) WACC is a special way to measure the capital discount of the firms gaining and spending. AMR Corp (AMR) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amr) Albany Molecular Research (AMRI) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amri) American Superconductor (AMSC) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amsc) AMERISAFE (AMSF) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amsf) How do we find out the values of the components in the formula for WACC? First let us note that the "weight" of a source of financing is simply the market value of that piece divided Amsurg (AMSG) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amsg) by the sum of the values of all the pieces. For example, the weight of common equity in the above formula would be determined as follows: American Software (AMSWA) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amswa) Market value of common equity / (Market value of common equity + Market value of debt + Market value of preferred equity). American Tower (AMT) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amt) TD Ameritrade (AMTD) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amtd) So, let us proceed in finding the market values of each source of financing (namely the debt, preferred stock, and common stock). American Woodmark (AMWD) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amwd) The market value for equity for a publicly traded company is simply the price per share multiplied by the number of shares outstanding, and tends to be the easiest component America Movil (AMX) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amx) to find. Amazon (AMZN) WACC (/wacc-analysis:amzn) AutoNation (AN) WACC (/wacc-analysis:an) The market value of the debt is easily found if the company has publicly traded bonds. Frequently, companies also have a significant amount of bank loans, whose market ANADIGICS (ANAD) WACC (/wacc-analysis:anad) value is not easily found. However, since the market value of debt tends to be pretty close to the book value (for companies that have not experienced significant changes in American National Insurance (ANAT) WACC (/wacc-analysis:anat) credit rating, at least), the book value of debt is usually used in the WACC formula. American Caresource (ANCI) WACC (/wacc-analysis:anci) The market value of preferred stock is again usually easily found on the market, and determined by multiplying the cost per share by number of shares outstanding. Andersons (ANDE) WACC (/wacc-analysis:ande) Anaren (ANEN) WACC (/wacc-analysis:anen) Now, let us take care of the costs. Abercrombie & Fitch (ANF) WACC (/wacc-analysis:anf) Preferred equity is equivalent to a perpetuity, where the holder is entitled to fixed payments forever. Thus the cost is determined by dividing the periodic payment by the price AngioDynamics (ANGO) WACC (/wacc-analysis:ango) of the preferred stock, in percentage terms. Anworth Mortgage (ANH) WACC (/wacc-analysis:anh) AnnTaylor (ANN) WACC (/wacc-analysis:ann) The cost of common equity is usually determined using the capital asset pricing model. Alpha Natural Resources (ANR) WACC (/wacc-analysis:anr) The cost of debt is the yield to maturity on the publicly traded bonds of the company. Failing availability of that, the rates of interest charged by the banks on recent loans to the Ansys (ANSS) WACC (/wacc-analysis:anss) company would also serve as a good cost of debt. Since a corporation normally can write off taxes on the interest it pays on the debt, however, the cost of debt is further Answers (ANSW) WACC (/wacc-analysis:answ) reduced by the tax rate that the corporation is subject to. Thus, the cost of debt for a company becomes (YTM on bonds or interest on loans) × (1 − tax rate). In fact, the tax Aegean Marine (ANW) WACC (/wacc-analysis:anw) deduction is usually kept in the formula for WACC, rather than being rolled up into cost of debt, as such: American Oriental Bioeng (AOB) WACC (/wacc-analysis:aob) Alliance One (AOI) WACC (/wacc-analysis:aoi) WACC = weight of preferred equity × cost of preferred equity Aon (AON) WACC (/wacc-analysis:aon) weight of common equity × cost of common equity AO Smith Corp (AOS) WACC (/wacc-analysis:aos) weight of debt × cost of debt × (1 − tax rate). Ampco-Pittsburgh (AP) WACC (/wacc-analysis:ap) Apache (APA) WACC (/wacc-analysis:apa) And now we are ready to plug all our data into the WACC formula.
