The new Duff & Phelps 2017 Valuation Handbook–U.S Guide to Cost of Capital, published by John Wiley & Sons, is available for pre-order. This annual publication incorporates the Duff & Phelps Risk Premium Report, previously published as a standalone report, along with the year-end data previously available in the discontinued Ibbotson® Stocks, Bonds, Bills and Inflation (SBBI®) Valuation Yearbook.

The companion Valuation Handbook–Risk Premium ToolKit (formerly called the Calculator) is updated through December 2016 (available from Business Valuation Resources).

Starting with the 2017 editions, the names of the four books have been changed to Valuation Handbook-U.S. Guide to Cost of Capital, Valuation Handbook-U.S. Industry Cost of Capital, Valuation Handbook-International Guide to Cost of Capital, and Valuation Handbook - International Industry Cost of Capital.

These resources are designed to assist financial professionals in estimating the cost of equity capital, a key component in computing a discount rate for valuing businesses and assets, as well as establishing hurdle rates for investment projects.

To purchase the 2017 Valuation Handbook - U.S. Guide to Cost of Capital, contact John Wiley & Sons or our distributors.
