Related to Time (Thoughts)
 My interest is in the future because I am
going to spend the rest of my life there.
Charles Franklin Kettering, Former Head-Research,
General Motors
 The man should never be ashamed to own
that he has been in the wrong, which is but
saying in other words, that he is wiser today
than yesterday.
Jonathan Swift, Famous Satiric Writer, Ireland
 Remember that time is money.
Benjamin Franklin, Noted Economist, USA
Contd….
 You can’t get caught up in things that
you can’t control…….we can’t control
our selling price. We can control our
cost of manufacturing. We can control
our efficiencies. We can control our
waste.
Steven Appleton, CEO of Micro Technology
 If you don’t know where you’re going, it
doesn’t matter how you get there.
Prof. Sarbesh Mishra, NICMAR, Hyderabad
Economic Analysis
 To achieve maximum profitability
from the project concerned
 To minimise construction costs
within criteria set for design, quality
and space
 To maximise any social benefit
 To minimise risk and uncertainty
 To maximise safety, quality and
public image
Processes
 Preparation, which includes understanding
the project, defining the client’s objectives
and collecting the appropriate data
 Analysis, which requires an interpretation
of the available data and the formulation of
alternative solution
 Evaluation, which is a combination of the
assessment of the suggested alternatives
and the identification of alternative solution
 Decision Making, which involves choosing
to proceed with the course of action now
identified
Importance of Investment Decision
 Influence the firm’s growth in long-term
 They affect the risk of the firm
 They involve commitment of large
volume of funds
 They are irreversible, or reversible at
substantial loss
 They are among most difficult decisions
to make.
Types of Capital Investment
 Assets to meet regulatory, safety,
health, & environmental requirement.
 Assets to enhance operating

efficiency and/or increase revenue.
 Assets to enhance competitive

effectiveness.
Investment Evaluation Criteria
 Estimation of Cash flows.
 Estimation of required rate of

return (Opportunity cost of capital)
 Application of decision rule for

making the choice
Cash Flows
 Cash inflows or outflows occur at three
stages of capital investment project
 Project Initiation (For beginning operations,
Working Capital needs, Replacement of asset)
 Project Operation (Operating Expenditure, Addl.
Working capital need, inflow of cash generated by the
investment)
 Final Project Disposal (Cash inflows or
outflows related to investment’s disposal, Cash inflows
from the release of working capital no longer committed to
the investment)
Opportunity Cost
 Opportunity cost is the cost incurred (sacrifice)
by choosing one option over the next best
alternative (which may be equally desired). Thus,
opportunity cost is the cost of pursuing one choice
instead of another.
 The opportunity cost of capital is the

expected return forgone by bypassing of other
potential investment activities for a given
capital. It is a rate of return that investors
could earn in financial markets otherwise
referred as second best alternative
Investment appraisal Techniques
Traditional Techniques
 Payback Period Method
 Accounting Rate of return Method
Discounted Cash flow Technique

 Net Present Value method (NPV)
 Internal Rate of Return Method (IRR)
 Profitability Index Method (PI)

Traditional Techniques
Payback Period Method
 Payback is the number of years required to
recover the original cash outlay invested in a
project.
 Payback = Initial Investment

Annual Average Cash Flows
Project would be accepted if its payback period is

less than the maximum or standard payback
period set by management.
Accounting Rate of Return (ARR)
 This measures the profitability of an
investment.
ARR = Average Income

Average Investment
Projects with higher ARR over the minimum

rate established by the management will be
accepted.
DCF Techniques
 It explicitly recognizes the time value of
money.
 Cash flows arising at different time periods

differ in their value and are comparable
when their present values are found out.
 The compound interest rate is used for

discounting cash flows is also called as the
discount rate.
Net Present Value Method (NPV)
 Cash flows of the invested projects should
be forecasted based on realistic
assumptions.
 Appropriate discount rate should
identified to discount the forecasted cash
flows.
 Present value of cash flows should be
calculated using the opportunity cost of
capital as the discount rate.
 Net Present Value is found out by
subtracting present value of cash inflows.
NPV Formula
n
Ct
NPV = Ʃ - C0
t=1 (1+k)t
C1, C2 ….. Represent cash inflow in year 1,2 ….,
k is the opportunity cost of capital
C0 is the initial cost of investment
n is the expected life of the investment
* k is assumed to be known and is constant
Acceptance Rule
2. Accept the project when NPV is positive
4. Reject the project when NPV is negative
6. May accept the project when NPV is zero.
Higher the NPV, the better it is.

IRR and PI
 The internal rate of return is the rate that
equates the investment outlay with the present
value of cash inflow received after one year.
The project shall be accepted if IRR is higher
than the opportunity cost of capital.
 Profitability index is the ratio of the present

value of cash inflows, at the required rate
of return, to the initial cash outflow of the
investment.
Risk Analysis as a measure
of cost control
Uncertainty arises from the lack of previous
experience and knowledge. Attached factors
are:
 Date of Completion
 Level of capital outlay required
 Level of selling price
 Level of sales volume
 Level of revenue
 Level of Operating Costs
 Taxation Rules
Probability and Expected Values
 The probability of a particular outcome
of an event is simply the proportion of
times this outcome would occur if the
events were repeated a great number of
times.
 Expected Values – It results from the
multiplication of each possible outcome of
an event by the probability of that
outcome occurring.
Risk Adjusted Discounted Rate
 The capital asset pricing model (CAPM) has
provided an approach to determine project
required rate of return with risk
consideration.
 A measure of risk developed in the portfolio
theory is beta (β).
RADR = Rf + Ri (K0 – Rf)
Rf = Risk free rate
K0 = Cost of Capital
Ri = Risk index of the project
