Overview
The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) uses a set of assumptions and
observed data to estimate the cost of equity capital for a company or class of
assets. Managers can then use this estimate to determine whether a proposed
investment or disposal will generate returns greater or equal to those required by
their shareholders.
Systematic risk reflects the fact that returns on equity investments are
affected by numerous factors that tend to affect the market as a whole.
Economic growth, inflation, changes in interest rates and
investor sentiment all tend to affect the overall market, causing some of
the variance in individual stock returns to be correlated with returns of
the market. Because systematic risk cannot be diversified away, it
justifies requiring a higher return. Indeed, systematic risk is the only
factor that justifies requiring a higher rate of return than the risk-free rate.
Not all stocks have the same level of systematic risk. A stock’s systematic risk is
determined by the nature of the company’s assets and by the amount of leverage
employed. A highly cyclical business might be more affected by the economy and
interest rates and therefore have a high level of systematic risk. A collection
agency, by contrast, might have a very low level of systematic risk, since it thrives
in difficult times.
The second assumption typically made in CAPM is that the historic difference
between returns on the equity market (usually going back several decades) and
on risk-free securities represents the risk premium demanded by investors, and
is therefore indicative of the risk premium required by investors going forward.
Note, however, that this assumption is not necessary for CAPM to work, and CAPM
cost of equity valuations can be run based on any assumption for the equity market
risk premium.
This also enables the analyst to use quoted companies to estimate the beta of
privately held companies. Suppose the founding family owns the supermarket
business in question. We cannot measure its beta directly, as there is no daily
stock price to correlate with the market. However, by looking at the betas of a
number of quoted supermarket chains, we can hopefully come up with a
reasonable estimate.

Formulas:
Earnings per share (EPS) = Earnings / Number shares outstanding
Cost of capital (Asset) KA = Rf + BA (Rm+Rf)
Cost of capital (Equity) KE = Rf + BE (Rm+Rf)
Unlevering the equity beta (BBE)A = [E/(D+E)]*BE
Where:
E = Market value of equity
D = Market value of debt (in first year finance assume that MV=BV)
(D+E) = Market value of the firm
