Weighted Average Cost of Capital and Cost of Capital Allocation in the Real-World

 For this discussion forum, you will provide a real-world example of how capital allocation was successfully or unsuccessfully applied. First, use the Ashford University Library to research an article on capital allocation; many articles are available in the library. Then, select and review the article. For your initial post, summarize the article, and provide a connection between the article’s concepts and readings for the week. Do any of the concepts in your article agree or disagree with the textbook? Additionally, based on the findings in your article, explain how the weighted average of cost capital (WACC) influences investment decisions.
