Cost of Capital Methodology

On 5 March 2004, the Queensland Competition Authority released an independent report by Dr Martin Lally that reviewed the Authority’s current methodology for determining the cost of capital for regulated entities.  The review involved a comprehensive, technical analysis of all aspects of the Authority’s current approach.

The results of this review have been incorporated into the Authority's methodology, and are reflected in its publications and Decisions.
