of repaying the principal and interest in terms of patent’s own currency will be affected as follows:
If U.S. MNC borrows Deutschemarks for one year at 6% and the Mark increases interest of $ by 8%, the before tax cost of capital:
° Kc = interest on DM*additional interest to exchange rate change + additional principal due to exchange rate.
° If the interest rate in Germany = [(1.06*1.08)-1]*100 = 14.48% and if the tax rate is 54%, then the after tax cost of capital = 14.48%(1-.54) = 7.82%.
After tax expected dollar cost to foreign affiliate of one year foreign currency loan = r = (1-d)(1-t)-d, where r = interest rate, d = expected foreign currency devaluation to dollar and t = local tax.
