Case 12 – H. J. Heinz: Estimating the Cost of Capital in Uncertain Times

An analyst at the H. J. Heinz Company is evaluating the company’s weighted average cost of capital (WACC) in light of recent changes in the market. By evaluating the impact of market changes on the WACC, the case provides a vehicle for not only exploring the WACC calculation but also for examining the implicit assumptions that make the WACC a useful discount rate in corporate settings. The case also draws attention to some of the more challenging issues that are often overlooked.
