If you were to try to estimate the appropriate cost of capital for different divisions, what problems might you encounter? What are two techniques you could use to develop a rough estimate for each division’s cost of capital?
Scenario three: If a portfolio has a positive investment in every asset, can the expected return on a portfolio be greater than that of every asset in the portfolio?
