What you’ll find at The Cost of Capital Center:
- Industry Cost of Capital—Ibbotson’s
Cost of Capital Quarterly online provides cost of capital analysis on over 300
industries for help in performing discounted cash flow analysis. Our web site offers
industry betas, cost of equity, weighted average cost of capital and other important
financial statistics by industry to aid you in your analysis. Search by SIC code, industry
description or company name and buy only the pages you need.
- Individual Company Betas—Ibbotson’s
Beta Book is now available on a company-by-company basis. Both traditional and innovative
measures of beta are presented, including levered and unlevered betas, peer group adjusted
betas, betas for thinly traded securities and the Fama-French 3-factor model.
- Domestic And International Risk Premia—Ibbotson
now offers four risk premia products at The Cost of Capital Center. The Risk
Premia Over Time Report provides equity and size premia over your choice of historical
time periods. Exclusive to Ibbotson Associates, PricewaterhouseCoopers' Risk Premia
Study provides equity risk premia on 25 separate size groups for use with the
build-up approach. Containing data back to 1970, the International Risk
Premia Report provides equity risk premia on 15 countries.
- Company Tax Rates—If you are using the
top statutory marginal tax rate in your cost of capital calculations, you are probably
making an error in your cost of capital estimate. Recent research has shown that most
companies should not expect to pay the top marginal rate on projected future cash flows.
Our new tax rate analysis includes over 5,000 companies and is available in its entirety,
broken into industries or on an individual company basis.
