To evaluate the two projects, you decide to use the company's weighted average cost of capital (WACC) for the less risky project (12 percent) and the WACC plus two points (14 percent) for the more risky project.
What is the expected value for each project, the coefficient of variation for both projects, and risk-adjusted NPV for each project?
