Each WACC discount rate analysis features up to eleven comparable companies with real time stock price updates. Users can manipulate the companies to better suit their individual investment needs. WikiWealth.com uses the CAPM (capital asset pricing model) to compute the cost of equity and a levered/unlevered beta adjustment to refine the WACC calculation. WikiWealth.com’s user-friendly transparency model, succinct approach, and customization can aid investment professionals in their research.

WikiWealth.com’s innovative experiment mode (WIEM) allows persons to experiment with any number, formula, and assumption to reflect individual insights. From Apple Inc.

Calculate and explore how different combinations of comparable companies match your needs without painstakingly creating a separate research report or protocol each time. Use WikiWealth.com to acquire WACC estimates before building your own models and apply WikiWealth.com’s industry quality analysis to contrast and evaluate your finished analysis. The analysis is free, but the time saved is priceless. Experiment with tax rates, debt levels, beta estimates, shares outstanding and other figures based on your individual assumptions. WikiWealth.com provides the highest quality WACC calculations and an unmatched level of customization to aid your investment style or learning objective.

The WACC discount rate calculation is only one segment of WikiWealth.com’s full investment research report (FIRR).
