Understanding the Minefield of Weighted Average Cost of Capital
Business Valuation Review, 2005In a previous article, I explained how we can use an iterative approach to reach value estimates that give consistent values whether we use the equity approach or the invested-capital approach to firm valuation. In response to that article, Alix Mandron wrote that these methods do not work correctly. This article is in response to Mandron's criticisms.

Financial Management, 1977
Assuming that the firm has an optimal debt/equity ratio, most textbooks recommend using the weighted average cost of capital as a cutoff rate for investment decision-making.

maximization of the total market value of the firm. The primary purpose of this comment is to reconcile the generally accepted definition of the after-tax weighted average cost of capital (wacc) with the definition proposed by Arditti. In accomplishing this objective we will derive three definitions of the wacc, and will show that the capital structure

Managerial Decisions and the Weighted Average Cost of Capital
Journal of Finance Issues, 2008This paper explores the relationship between the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) of a company and its marginal cost of capital. We adopt the classic economic theory of production to shed light into the conditions upon which WACC can be safely treated as the marginal cost of a company.

The weighted average cost of capital is not quite right

Its use implies that for investment projects earning precisely the WACC the cash (in)flow is exactly sufficient to reward all the ...

A Little More on the Weighted Average Cost of Capital
The Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis, 1975In a recent issue of this journal, Linke and Kim [1], hereafter denoted as L-K, have shown that for finite-time horizons in excess of one period and if, over the same period, the firm's ratio of debt to equity is held constant, the firm's overall required rate of return could be expressed as a weighted average cost of capital.
