Abstract: | Setting business unit hurdle rates is very complicated, especially in multi-business- business firms, where different hurdle rates must be used when allocating capital. The capital Asset Pricing Model /CAPM/ provides a framework. Two methodologies can be used for estimating divisional hurdle rates: Peer group analysis, and cross-sectional risk assessment. |
