Abstract
We use the Wilson-Devinney program to solve anew the light and radial velocity curve of WX Cnc, confirming it to be a detached binary. By adding a spot to the surface of the secondary star, the asymmetry in the light curve revealed in the new solution is satisfactorily explained. The new solution shows the secondary to be a G4V star and not a G8V star, as previously thought. The absolute parameters are given in TABLE 2. Both stars show evolution in the main sequence.
