The standard methodology for deriving cost of capital estimates is based on the seminal Modigliani-Miller analyses. This book generalizes this framework to include non-debt tax shields (e.g., depreciation), interactions between the borrowing rate and tax shields, and default considerations. It develops several new results and shows how better cost of capital and marginal tax rate estimates can be generated. The book's unified cost of capital theory is discussed with comprehensive numerical examples and graphical 606 $aCorporations$xFinance 606 $aCapital costs 606 $aCorporate debt 606 $aCapital assets pricing model 606 $aFinancial leverage 615 0$aCorporations$xFinance. 615 0$aCapital costs. 615 0$aCorporate debt. 615 0$aCapital assets pricing model. 615 0$aFinancial leverage. 676 $a338.6/04101 700 $aRao$b Ramesh K.
