Explanation:
The economic value added (EVA) measures how much more value, wealth or actual money is created by an investment.
In this case, the more profits grow, the more value is created by the company. If the cost of capital increases, it will be more expensive for the company to operate resulting in less value created. Bonds are part of the financial activities of a company and the money provided should help to increase value.
