Neither A nor B.<\/p>\n<p>WACC stands for Weighted Average Cost of Capital. It is a measure of a company&#8217;s overall cost of capital, taking into account the different types of financing it uses. The WACC is calculated by weighting the cost of each type of financing by its proportion of the total capital structure.<\/p>\n<p>In the case of an all-equity financed firm, there is no debt financing, so the WACC would be equal to the cost of equity. The cost of equity is the rate of return that investors require on their investment in the firm. It is calculated by taking into account the risk of the firm and the return that investors could earn on other investments of similar risk.<\/p>\n<p>The cost <div class=\"telegram-channel-container\">\r\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/pscnotes2025\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"telegram-channel-button\">\r\n            <span class=\"telegram-icon\">\r\n                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 496 512\">\r\n                    <path fill=\"white\" d=\"M248,8C111,8,0,119,0,256s111,248,248,248s248-111,248-248S385,8,248,8z M362,177L320,367c-3,14-10,18-20,14l-56-41l-27,26 c-3,3-5,5-10,5l4-63L323,196c5-5-1-7-8-3l-98,62l-42-13c-9-3-10-9,2-14l162-63C351,160,365,164,362,177z\"\/>\r\n                <\/svg>\r\n            <\/span>\r\n            Join Our Telegram Channel\r\n        <\/a>\r\n    <\/div> of debt is the rate of interest that a firm pays on its borrowings.
