Two sources of Risk: 1. Operating (Business) risk: Variability associated with operating income 2. Financial Risk: Risk of distress or bankruptcy due to use of fixed cost financing
Evaluating cash flow (Cont):   Differential Cash Flows: For each year of projects life, calculate Incremental Revenue - Incremental Costs - Depreciation on project = Incremental Earnings before Taxes (EBT) - Tax on incremental EBT   Incremental Earnings after taxes (NI) + Depreciation reversal = Annual Cash Flows
Profitablility Ratios: ROA = Net Income / Total Asssets   ROE = Net Income / Total Equity   Gross Margin = Gross Profit / Sales   Net Margin = Net Income / Sales

Coupon Rate: Interest rate of the bond. Example: If 5% is coupon rate for a $1000 par value bond, bond will pay $ 50 interest every year.
CAPM formula: R  =   Rf   +   ß(Km - Rf)   Where R is the expected rate of return on a securityRf is the return rate of a "risk-free" investmentKm is the return rate of the appropriate asset class  
Operating Leverage: Operating Leverage is the use of fixed operating costs (rent, property tax, administrative salaries) as opposed to variable operating costs. Firm with high fixed cost has  high operating leverage.
Maturity: The number of years from when the bond is issued to when it expires is its maturity.

Cash Flow from Operations: Net Income + Non cash expense ( Depreciation and Amortization) + Decrease in current assets ( other than Cash) -  Increase in current assets ( other than Cash) + Increase in current liabilities ( other than notes payable) - Decrease in current liablities ( other than notes payable) = CFO
Risk and Acceptance: Risk of the project should be properly evaluated. Firm can finally accept or reject the project based on NPV or IRR.
Yield to maturity: Return on the bond if held till maturity and bond does not default
Two stage growth model: Estimate cash flows of two different growth stages Stage1 : Dividends grow at above-average rates Stage 2: Dividends grow at the industry average rate    
Statement of Cash Flows: Cash flow from Operations + Cash flow from Investing + Cash flow from Financing =  Change in Cash +  Beginning Cash = End Cash  
The cost of Debt: Generally cost of debt is cheaper than debt. After tax cost of Debt = Before tax cost of debt - tax savings = Before tax cost of debt × (1- tax rate)
Example: Find the beta on a stock XYZ given that its expected return is 12%, the risk-free rate is 4%, and the expected return on the market portfolio is 10%.   Ans: r         =   Rf   +   beta x (Km - Rf) 12%   =     4% + beta x (10% - 4%) Beta x =   12% - 4% / 10% - 4% Beta x = 1.33

Degree of Combined Leverage (DCL) : = DOL × DFL OR = (Sales - Variable Cost)/ (EBIT -1)
DOL Example: If a firm has DOL of 1 then 1% change in sales will change EBIT by 1%. Similarly, if DOL is 2, 1 % change in sales will change EBIT by 2%
The intrinsic value of an asset: The present value of the stream of expected cash flows discounted at an appropriate required rate of return.
Total value of an asset : The present value of the stream of expected cash flow discounted at the required rate of return
