How to calculate, interpret and manage your companywide and local WACC, in established and emerging markets, to create shareholder value and make investment decisions. The Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) is an important hurdle rate for investment decisions in all companies. Even more important is the strong relation between the WACC and shareholder value of your company. However few companies have a well defined WACC calculation methodolgy and a policy how to apply the WACC. This course looks in detail not only at how to calculate, but also to interpret and manage, both your company-wide and local WACC in established and emerging markets to dramatically increase your awareness of creating shareholder value and make investment decisions.
