Multiple Choice

Consider the following equation for the question(s) below.

-Which of the following statements is TRUE?

• A) Holding cash has the opposite effect of leverage on risk and return.
• B) We use the market value of a firm's net debt when computing its WACC and unlevered beta to measure the cost of capital and market risk of the firm's business assets.
• C) Since the WACC does not change with the use of leverage, the value of a firm's free cash flow evaluated using the WACC does not change, and so the enterprise value of the firm does not depend on its financing choices.
• D) Even if a firm's capital structure is more complex, the WACC is calculated by computing the weighted average cost of only the firm's debt and equity.
