Original Abstract

The article deals with the problematic of the calculation of the cost of equity as an inseparable part of the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) value determination (Miller R. A., USA, 2009). Various methods can be used for the calculation of the cost of equity. This text concentrates on the CAPM (Capital Asset Pricing Model) method based on the objectively identified inputs and market valuation risks (Tham J., USA, 2004).This model requires three inputs for the calculation – risk-free interest rate, beta coefficient and return on the market portfolio shares (Damodaran A., USA, 2001). In spite of considering this method to be the most objective and most commonly used in valuation practice, it has also several disadvantages.
