- Next, we need to calculate MMMs cost of debt. We can use different approaches to estimate it One approach is to take the companys interest expense and divide it by total debt (which is the sum of short-term debt and long-term debt). This approach only works if the historical cost of debt equals the yield to maturity in todays market (i.e., if MMMs outstanding bonds are trading at dose to par). This approach may produce misleading estimates in years in which MMM issues a significant amount of new debt. For example, if a company issues a great deal of debt at the end of the year, the full amount of debt will appear on the year-end balance sheet, yet we still may not see a sharp increase in annual interest expense because the debt was outstanding for only a small portion of the entire year. When this situation occurs, the estimated cost of debt will likely understate the true cost of debt. Another approach is to try to find this number in the notes to the companys annual report by accessing the company's home page and its Investor Relations section. Alternatively, you can go to other external sources, such as bondsonline.com, for corporate bond spreads, which can be used to find estimates of the cost of debt. Finally, you can also go to Morningstar.com, which will provide yield to maturity information on the firms various bond issues. A longer-term issues YTM could provide an estimate of the firms current cost of debt to be used in the WACC calculation. Remember that you need the after-tax cost of debt to calculate a firm's WACC, so you will need MMMs tax rate (which has averaged around 30% in recent years). What is your estimate of MMMs after-tax cost of debt?arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is false? A. Basel II use the value at risk (VaR) with a one-year time horizon and a 99.9% confidence level for calculating capital for credit risk and operational risk. B. 20 BP = 0.2% C. Basel I is increasing the amount of capital that banks are required to hold and the proportion of that capital that must be equity. D. Model-building approach is a model for the joint distribution of changes in market variables and using historical data to estimate the model parameters.arrow_forwardQUESTION 4(a) Explain why the demand for loanable funds tends to increase during expansion.(b) Illustrate any FIVE (5) negative effects of inflation.arrow_forward
