Introduction
Fund or capital which is needed to finance a business or invest in a plan is prepared by different groups, those groups expecting a significant rate of return. Cost of equity of a business is equal to the minimum expected returns which a plan should include, and in this case investors will become eager to pay their fund for business. Research shows that various factors have effect on expected rate of return. Basu (1977) mentioned in his studies that those stocks that have larger P/E ratios will have a larger expected return. Bhandari (1988) described in his studies that depth ratio to total equity of shareholders as one of leverage ratios, have a relationship with expected return. Therefore, investors according to financial information published by companies and analyzing them through financial ratios, estimate risk of investment in companies and according to it, they demand specified expected return of their investment. And this rate is what we called cost of investment. Depending on the importance of the mentioned points, this research is representing the relationship between financial ratio and cost of stocks in Tehran Stock Exchange.
