The correct discount rate for a firm to use in capital budgeting, assuming that new investments are as risky as the firm's existing assets, is its marginal cost of capital.
Answer the following statement true (T) or false (F)
True
A firm should continue to manufacture and sell products to the point where marginal costs equal marginal revenues. Using this same logic, a firm should continue to invest in capital budgeting projects until its marginal cost of capital, MCC, equals the marginal return generated by the last project purchased, which is measured by the project's IRR. See 11-3: Combining the MCC and Investment Opportunity Schedules (IOS)
