Cost of capital is the most important and perhaps the trickiest aspect of corporate finance. At core, it represents the rate of return that we would expect tom generate from an investment of similar riskiness to the one we are considering. If we can achieve at least that rate of return from our prospective investment, we should proceed. If we can’t, we should not proceed.
