Abstract

This paper presents the interest rate in terms of consistent market, i.e. function of interest is defined as a continuous function which further allows to view the interest rate as a stochastic variable. In this context Stoodley`s formula is presented as a possibility of adequate evaluation of capital cost in terms of consistent market.
