24. Leverage capital. Interconnection costs and capital structure of the company.

Leverage - is the process of asset and liability management of the enterprise, organization or institution for profit. Literally leverage - a lever with a small effort that can significantly change the results of production and financial activity, the ratio of capital investments in securities with fixed income (bonds, preferred shares) and investments in securities with fixed income (ordinary shares). Leverage - is the ratio or balance between the capital invested in securities with fixed income (this includes preferred shares, bonds, etc.) and capital invested in equities.

Capital - the main economic base of creation and enterprise development. In the course of its functioning capital ensures the interests of the state, the owners and staff. On financial management positions capital of the company characterizes the overall cost of funds in cash, tangible or intangible forms, invested in the formation of its assets.

Capital structure - the ratio of stocks, bonds, assets that make up the company's capital, in other words, the ratio of debt to equity. Categories reflecting the impact of this factor on the amount of net profit is financial leverage.

Managing capital structure - the process of determining the ratio of the use of debt to equity, in which optimal proportion between the level of return on equity and the level of financial stability are provided, i.e., maximizes the market value of the enterprise.

There are two main approaches to optimize the capital structure:

1. Traditional (it is believed that the cost of capital of the company depends on its structure) .There optimal capital structure which minimizes value of the WACC (cost of capital advanced and therefore maximizing the market value of the firm.)

2. The optimal structure, when the share of the loan is 30 to 50%. Theory of Modigliani-Miller. It is believed that under certain conditions the company's cost and the cost of capital does not depend on its structure and therefore can not be optimized, and it is impossible to increase the market value of the company due to changes in the capital structure. The market value is determined by capitalizing its operating earnings at a rate corresponding to the class of risk of the company.

In an analysis of cost of capital is very important question of an estimation of its value. Valuation of cost of capital allows get more information to make appropriate management decisions and the current long-term plan, to determine the effectiveness of the enterprise.

In practice, there are several ways to determine the cost of capital. Each of them has both positive aspects and disadvantages.

The first way - determine the accounting (book) value of the cost of capital of the enterprise. According to this method, all assets and liabilities recorded on its balance sheet at the cost of their acquisition or origination. Shareholders' equity is calculated as the difference between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities. This method of evaluation is acceptable only when the book and market value of assets and liabilities is not very different from each other. If the market value for one reason or another is significantly deviated from the original carrying amount, the method leads to a distortion of the results, the inadequacy of the equity. This method is simple, does not require special skills for workers and significant costs of the assessment.

The second way - the way of market value - is that assets and liabilities are measured at market value on the basis of which the equity is calculated. This method more accurately reflects the actual level of enterprise security, enables a more dynamic and realistic assessment of the cost of equity as the market value of assets and liabilities is constantly changing. However, enterprises are usually not interested in this method of determining the cost of equity, especially when it does not enhance the company's position in the market. This method is commonly used for internal management purposes, although it is useful also for external users.
