    Despite the language, since I'm Brazilian, it was easier to understand your class in English than in the videos I looked for in Portuguese. Congratulations on the content.

    FINALLY! I've been through several WACC calc vids and it seems as if they're either overcomplicating it or their figures were inconsistent throughout. This was simple and easy to follow. Thank you!

    You should use the Cost of Debt after Tax to calculate the WACC. From a tax perspective, interest expense (assuming these are incurred wholly and exclusively incurred for business purposes) are tax deductible which lowers the cost of debt.

    2 questions:
    1) Shouldn't we use the Cost of Debt after Tax in the WACC formula? Why else did we calculate it for ?
    2) When writing the market cap in the table, we get rid of 3 zeros, as we did for all the other number we took from yahoo finance. Therefore, the 2.513T (2,513,000,000,000) should be put as 2,513,000,000 in the table, but you only wrote 2,513,000 meaning you missed 3 zeros. Am I wrong ?

    • @Jimmy_Gustafsson
      @Jimmy_Gustafsson 2 года назад +8

      I think he made an error regarding your first question. You’re gonna calculate the cost after tax yes.
      Regarding your second question he didn’t make any error since 2.5 T = 2500 B = 2500 000 M (and he is writing in millions)

    In Cost of Equity - Risk Free Rate... You are looking for the Treasury Yield for 10 years, which is listed as $1.6280, however you input Risk Free Rate as 1.628%. I'm assuming this is supposed to be a rate, not a percentage..? Which rate are we supposed to incorporate? The last PRICE? or a Certain percentage? Please clarify.

    • @blakejohnson2206
      @blakejohnson2206 10 месяцев назад +3

      The $1.628 is the coupon payment on a treasury bond that has a $100 face value, which is a 1.628% yield, that being the rate of return of this risk-free investment. The coupon payment is in dollars, the coupon rate is expressed as a percentage. Reason why both terms are used is because if the coupon was semi-annual the coupon payment would be $0.814 but the rate would still be 1.628% which is always the annual return against the face value (usually $100 or $1000).

    • @juanperinatserrano5294
      @juanperinatserrano5294 Год назад +4

      The market return is how the market as a whole or "economy" is expected to perform in a year. As we cannot measure every single stock's profitability and put it in an index, we take proxys for this measurement, such as the S&P500 for the US. The S&P500 is an indexed fund that contains the 500 biggest American companies - a pretty good proxy to estimate the "market return". The S&P500, historically, has averaged 8-9% annually and hence the answer to your question!

      you cannot find it anywhere, cuz it is the expected return you want from the investment. It could be 12 or 15, anything.
