The weighted average cost of capital (WACC) can be used as an investment appraisal when evaluating projects or investments with similar risk profiles as the overall company. It provides a discount rate that reflects the combined cost of equity and debt financing for the company, and is used to calculate net present value (NPV) or internal rate of return (IRR) of the investment. WACC is appropriate when the investment's risk is similar to the company's overall risk and the company's capital structure is stable.
