COST OF CAPITAL
Opportunity cost for funding a business. The amount depends on the type of financing employed, whether through cost of equity or cost of debt. Many firms combine equity and debt to fund their businesses. Therefore, their overall cost of capital is taken from the weighted average cost of capital (WACC).
