Wilson's is reviewing a project with an internal rate of return of 13.09 percent and a beta of 1.42. The market risk premium is 8.1 percent, the tax rate is 35 percent, and the risk-free rate is 2.9 percent. The firm's WACC is 12.68 percent. Will the project be accepted if the WACC is used as the discount rate for the project

Sagot :

Answer:

Yes, The project will  be accepted.

Projects should be accepted when their internal rate of return is greater than the Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC). The WACC represents the cost or risk of the company so if the return is greater than the risk, then this will be favorable.
