➢ Example: Marico Ltd issues a bond with a face value of Rs. 100 on January 01, 2017. The bond
is issued at Rs. 67 and the date of maturity is January 01, 2022

COST OF EQUITY
➢ Secondary market – Existing shares are sold by one investor to another investor
❖ Shares can be listed on stock exchanges
❖ Unlisted shares are transacted privately, not on stock exchanges
n
P0 = ∑ Di + Pn where
i=1
(1 + ki)i (1+ Kn)n
Di is the dividend in the ith period and Pn is the exit price of the stock
➢ When the stock is held till perpetuity, the present value of the exit price becomes zero. Then,
∞
P0 = ∑ Di
i=1
(1 + ki)
➢ Example V1: Suppose you wish to buy a share of Sharma Cements Ltd. The share will pay a
dividend of Rs. 5 per annum. You wish to hold the share for 5 years, and expect to sell the
share at Rs. 110. If the discount rate is 10% pa., what is the price that you should pay for the
share?
Hence, the rate of return from a share, also called as the cost of an equity share is
ke = D1 / P0 + g
➢ Example V2: Suppose you wish to buy a share of Sharma Cements Ltd. The share paid a
dividend of Rs. 5 per annum in the current year. You wish to hold the share for ever. If the
dividend is expected to grow at 8% per annum and the discount rate is 10% pa. what is the
price that you should pay for the share?

R8 The levered beta for Ramu Farm Products is 1.20. The leverage (D/E) of the firm, as of
today, is 2. The effective tax rate for the firm is 25%. Compute:
