    – i assume all p4 questions, especially in calculation of npv have inflated each items (eg sales , cost) in specific inflation rates. therefore we have used monetary inflation rate incorporated into WACC ??am i correct ?

    – then is there any questions that have used real inflation rate to discount the cashflows ? Because so far i ve only seen wacc to discount to the cashflows.

    Why are you not watching the lectures? You cannot expect me to keep typing out here what is already in the lectures 🙂

    There is no such thing as the ‘real inflation rate’!!

    The only time it is likely that we will the real cost of capital when it is a perpetuity (because it is impossible to list the nominal cash flows for a perpetuity), albeit we usually used the dividend valuation formula in order to achieve this. This occurs in plenty of past exam questions.
