29. Cost of Capital and Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC)

Welcome back to Finance ABC, the podcast where we break down the essentials of finance for everyone, whether you're a curious learner, a student, or a business professional looking to sharpen your knowledge. Today, we’re talking about something central to the way businesses make decisions—it's called the “Cost of Capital” and a related concept called the “Weighted Average Cost of Capital,” often referred to by its initials, WACC. These ideas may sound technical, but they’re actually pretty fundamental, and they affect everything from how companies decide to invest in new projects to how they’re valued in the stock market.
