Book DCF Valuation and Imputed Interest on Equity Increase   Implications of the Austrian Tax System in a Model with Stochastic Profitability

Download or read book DCF Valuation and Imputed Interest on Equity Increase Implications of the Austrian Tax System in a Model with Stochastic Profitability written by Stefan Bogner and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As early as the 1980s, several European countries implemented tax systems with imputed equity interest provisions. Since its tax reform in 2000, Austria has also allowed the deduction of (fictitious) imputed equity interest from the tax base. This paper integrates the resulting equity-related tax benefits into the valuation of corporations. Using the equity method with special attention to the deductibility of imputed equity interest, we calculate the value of a business in a multi-period model. We find that a market-to-book ratio endogenous to the model results. We then demonstrate how to apply the APV method in a model with imputed equity interest. For each business - and thus also for an unlevered company - an adjustment is necessary to account for the tax shield resulting from equity financing. Therefore, an unlevered company that does not use equity tax shields has to be chosen as a common denominator in the application of the APV method, in which a closed-form solution is presented for the value of this tax benefit. Finally, we derive a weighted average cost of capital that considers the deductibility of imputed equity interest. We show that an additional term correcting for equity tax shields is necessary.

Book DCF Business Valuation with Imputed Interest on the Stock of Equity

Download or read book DCF Business Valuation with Imputed Interest on the Stock of Equity written by Manfred Frühwirth and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last two decades several European countries implemented tax systems allowing for the deduction of imputed equity interest from a company's tax base. This paper integrates the tax benefits resulting from imputed interest on the stock of equity into business valuation. Three discounted cash flow valuation methods are used to this end: the equity method, the APV method and the entity method. Intertemporal differences in risk require the use of various risk-adjusted term structures of interest rates in the equity method as well as the APV method. Using the equity method we show that the well-known market-to-book ratio of the constant growth dividend discount model holds in a risk-adjusted form. When applying the APV method with imputed equity interest an adjustment is necessary for each business, also for an unlevered company, to account for the tax shield resulting from equity financing. A closed-form solution is presented for the value of this tax benefit. We furthermore derive the WACC under imputed interest on the stock of equity and the adjustment of the cost of equity which is necessary to derive the WACC as a weighted average of cost of equity and debt.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the return to investing in the stock market? Can we predict future stock market returns? How have equities performed over the last two centuries? The authors in this volume are among the leading researchers in the study of these questions. This book draws upon their research on the stock market over the past two dozen years. It contains their major research articles on the equity risk premium and new contributions on measuring, forecasting, and timing stock market returns, together with new interpretive essays that explore critical issues and new research on the topic of stock market investing. This book is aimed at all readers interested in understanding the empirical basis for the equity risk premium. Through the analysis and interpretation of two scholars whose research contributions have been key factors in the modern debate over stock market perfomance, this volume engages the reader in many of the key issues of importance to investors. How large is the premium? Is history a reliable guide to predict future equity returns? Does the equity and cash flows of the market? Are global equity markets different from those in the United States? Do emerging markets offer higher or lower equity risk premia? The authors use the historical performance of the world's stock markets to address these issues.

Book American Exceptionalism

Download or read book American Exceptionalism written by Lall Ramrattan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-01-31 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The publication of Alexis de Tocqueville’s Democracy in America has kindled interest across disciplines to appraise the exceptional nature of U.S. activities. In general, however, all the published works have not focused their analyses from an economic point of view. While economics was for some a “dismal science” following Thomas Carlyle’s characterization of Malthus’ demographic model, it has increasingly become the “queen of the social sciences” for more practitioners. The book fills a gap in the literature by describing the American contributors as precursors and genuinely exceptional economists. We present their works within the state of the nation in which they advance their discipline. One is treated to both qualitative and quantitative theories in the opening chapter. Budding theories that became established theories of Economics and Finance are investigated in Chapters II and III. When President John Adams was confronted with M. Turgot’s criticisms of the American government, he resorted to a historic survey of types of government from ancient Greece to the Middle Ages. Similarly, we have included a final chapter, Chapter IV, to present the argument for American Exceptionalism in the domain of Political Economy and Economic Law over the ages.

Book Entrepreneurship and Openness

Download or read book Entrepreneurship and Openness written by David B. Audretsch and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Entrepreneurship is critical to economic growth, but it cannot flourish without open markets. Entrepreneurs can only be expected to take risks in 'open settings' where individuals and firms are free to contract with one another. In this important book, leading economists explain and document the role of open markets, within and across national boundaries, in facilitating entrepreneurship, innovation, and economic growth. The main message of this book is especially timely given growing concerns in developed countries about off-shoring and openness to trade. The book includes discussions of 'star' scientists-entrepreneurs and their positive impacts on local growth, the globalization of venture capital, information technology, entrepreneurship and cities, culture, off-shoring, trade competition and the expansion of world trade. This book will be welcomed by policy makers at all levels of government, university leaders and academic scholars in entrepreneurship, business and management, innovation, economics, sociology and urban economics.
