The followings are the instructions for this case. Provide the excel file where the computations are done. GIVE ANSWERS PLEASE. I WILL UPVOTE! You have to use the following equation: WACC = Wd*Rd*(1-t)+We*Re. Where WACC stands for the Weighed average cost of capital, Wd is the weight of debt in the capital could be either market value weight or book value weight and it is calculated in the following way: Wd=D/(E+D), where D is either the book value of debt or the market value of debt, E is the book value of equity or the market value of equity. So keep in mind if you want Wd on book value basis, then both E and D must be on book value basis, if you want Wd on a market value basis, then both E and D must be on market value basis. Rd is the cost of debt (percentage cost of debt),  t is the tax rate, We is the weight of equity in the capital could be either market value weight or book value weight, We = E/(E+D), as I explained Wd, it could be either on a book value or book value basis.

Consider the relationship between a project’s net present value (NPV), its internal rate of return (IRR), and a company’s cost of capital. For each scenario that follows, indicate the relative value of the unknown. If cost of capital is unknown, indicate whether it would be higher or lower than the stated IRR. If NPV is unknown, indicate whether it would be higher or lower than zero. Project 1 is shown as an example.
