Weighted average cost of capital (WACC)


WACC = wd * kd * (1 – t) + wp * kp + ws * ks

WACC is used to compare the after-tax cost of capital to the after-tax return.

The weights are based on company target capital structure, use bookvalue weight if they are close to the market value, otherwise use market value.
