The cost of capital is assumed to be 12%. Assume the forecasted cash flows for projects of this are typically overstated. That is, each $1 in forecasted cash flows for periods C1 and later should be reduced by 6 cents based on prior experience. But a lazy financial manager, unwilling to take the time to either argue with the project's sponsors or to adjust the cash flows, instructs the managers to use a discount rate of 18%.
