    no the firm will not do the investment. because if the firm borrows the money & invest it in the project then the return will be 6% but the cost is 8%. so it will lose 2%.

    it also should not invest his own money on the project to get get the 6% return. because he could have loan the money to someone else & get 8% return. therefore his opportunity cost of investing the money is greater than the return.

    therefore he should not make the investment.
