They have to know exactly how much of their product they can make each hour‚ day or week. In a shampoo factory‚ the rate might be 100 bottles per minute. We can’t work out the rate of a reaction from its chemical equation. Equations can only tells us how much product we can get. They don’t say how quickly

Overview This case study focuses on where financial theory ends and practical application of the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) begins. It presents evidence on how some of the most financially complex companies and financial advisors estimated capital costs and focuses on the gaps found between theory and application.
