A more suitable mindset is that capital is accessible but comes at a cost...
many executives act as if the cash that the business generates is essentially free. The right mindset is that all capital, whether from an internal or external source, has an opportunity cost.
Capital allocation is ultimately about assessing opportunities and executing on the ones that are attractive. As such, it requires a willingness to be a buyer or a seller given the circumstances.
