How does a change in the cost of capital affect the projects irr?

A change in the cost of capital affects a project's internal rate of return (IRR) by influencing the discount rate used to evaluate the project's cash flows. If the cost of capital increases, the present value of future cash flows decreases, making it less likely that the IRR will exceed the new higher cost of capital threshold. Conversely, if the cost of capital decreases, the present value of cash flows increases, potentially making the IRR more favorable. Ultimately, the relationship between the cost of capital and IRR is critical for investment decision-making, as it helps determine the project's viability.
