Some projects that a firm accepts will undoubtedly result in zero or negative returns. In light of this fact, it is best if the firm:

 

adjusts its hurdle rate (i.e., cost of capital) upward to compensate for this fact.

 

adjusts its hurdle rate (i.e., cost of capital) downward to compensate for this fact.

 

does not adjust its hurdle rate up or down regardless of this fact.

 

raises its prices to compensate for this fact.

But also evaluate the Projects to see where it goes wrong.
