The Boeing 7E7 WACC Estimation In order to evaluate the prospective IRRs from the Boeing 7E7‚ we first try to estimate an appropriate required rate of return for accepting this project. The capital asset pricing model is applied to estimate the cost of equity of the commercial aircraft division: R_EC= β_EC*(R_M-R_f )+R_f where REC is the cost of equity capital of the commercial aircraft division. βEC is the beta for the commercial division of Boeing.
