The author compares the relative merits of discounted cash flow (DCF) and the capital-asset pricing model (CAPM) to see if the recent interest in CAPM as a way for utilities to determine cost rate of equity capital is warranted. He identifies a number of inadequacies in the CAPM approach and concludes that it is less applicable than the more traditional DCF method. He also feels that it requires too sophisticated a knowledge of economics and finance to be generally useful.
