Abstract

En el presente trabajo se estudia el comportamiento de la estructura y costo promedio ponderado de capital de las principales empresas del sector autoservicio en el periodo 2008-2012, además se comparan sus precios de mercado del 2012 con los valores obtenidos por la metodología de flujos de efectivo descontados. Se analizan dos tipos de estructura de capital: estática y dinámica. La evidencia muestra que la estructura y costo promedio ponderado de capital cambian significativamente, así como también el valor del capital. Por otro lado, los valores de las empresas hasta 2012, estimados por la estructura de capital dinámica fueron más cercanos a los precios de mercado de las acciones. La conclusión es que se debe contemplar la variación de la estructura y costo promedio ponderado de capital de la empresa al estimar su valor, cuando se utiliza la metodología de flujos de efectivo descontados. / This paper studies the behavior of the structure and weighted-average cost of capital of the main self-service retail stores during the period 2008-2012. In addition it compares its market prices for 2012 with the values obtained using the methodology of discounted cash flow. The Static and Dynamic capital structures are compared. Evidence shows significant changes in the capital structure, the capital weighted average cost and the equity value. On the other hand, the values of the companies to 2012 estimated considering the dynamic capital structure were closer to the equity market prices. The conclusion is that the variation of the structure and weighted average cost of capital of the company has to be considered when estimating its value, in particular when using the discounted cash flow methodology.
