In August 2001, Woodsen, Inc., of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, considered the development of a large subsidiary in Greece. In response to the September 11, 2001, terrorist attack on the United States, its expected cash flows and earnings from this acquisition were reduced only slightly.

Explain why the required rate of return on its project may have increased after the attack.
