Cost of Debt Formula

where,
Rd = Debt interest Rate
tc = Total tax rate

Let us learn cost of debt better with the following example:

Example: Company CDE issues debt interest rate of 5%. The total tax rate is 35%. Calculate CDE's cost of debt.
Solution:
Given:
Debt Interest Rate = 5%
Total Tax Rate = 35%

We know the formula to calculate cost of debt = Rd(1 - tc)

Let us input the values onto the formula = 5(1 - 0.35)

= 3.25% 

Hence, the cost of debt for the company CDE = 3.25%
