Why is it not the WACC?Thanks Keshini June 1, 2015 at 8:12 am #251195 John MoffatKeymasterTopics: 57Replies: 54478☆☆☆☆☆Because the question asks for the APV.For APV you calculate the NPV as though it were all equity financed (i.e. using the ungeared cost of equity) and then add the tax benefit on the debt interest.
