Abstract

In this note, we show that with respect to the Miles and Ezzell (M&E) Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC), the return to levered equity for finite cash flows is constant if the debt-equity ratio is constant. We assume that the reader is familiar with the M&E WACC. The expression that we derive is not new. We hope that our straightforward derivation with simple algebra makes the M&E WACC more widely known.
