best techniques identify the amount, the time value, and the risk factor of a project’s cash flows (Baker, 2011). Four of the more popular and most useful techniques that this paper will focus on are payback period, net present value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR), and profitability index (IP). The first of the four techniques to review is the payback period method. Referred to as the “breakeven” point, the payback period technique is known as the simplest of the four as its only consideration

Those three methods are NPV (Net Present Value), IRR (Internal Rate of Return), and Payback method. NPV (Net Present Value) NPV or net present value helps an organization figure out whether it’s better to invest in a project based on the net amount of discounted cash flows for the project (Eldenburg, PhD & Wolcott PhD, CPA, CMA, 2011). NPV is best served positive which will indicate that the project will be a benefit by increasing the value of the organization. NPV is calculated through expected

opportunity cost because it is cash they could have had if they did not use the space for the project. Therefore, $500,000 (25,000*20) would have to be charged to the new project, and failing to do so would result in a false calculation of the projects NPV. 4.

ensuring growth of the organization. The techniques are divided into two types: one, Traditional (non-discounting) that includes pay back method, accounting rate of return (ARR). Two, discounting cash flow that includes net present value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR) Profitability Index (PI). Before an investment appraisal is conducted, there are a number of points to keep in mind. Whilst the tool presented will give an evaluation of the worth of a project, one should consider that the answer is

CASE STUDY The Investment Detective The essence of capital budgeting and resource allocation is a search for good investments in which to place the firm’s capital. The process can be simple when viewed in purely mechanical terms, but a number of subtle issues can obscure the best investment choices. The capital budgeting analyst is necessarily, therefore, a detective who must winnow good evidence from bad. Much of the challenges is knowing what quantitative analysis to generate in the first

analyze the reasons why the short-term project that you have chosen might be ranked higher under the NPV criterion if the cost of capital is high, while the long-term project might be deemed better if the cost of capital is low. Determine whether or not changes in the cost of capital could ever cause a change in the internal rate of return (IRR) ranking of two (2). To examine the profitability of project, NPV is often used in preparing a budget for the costs of capital. It is quite challenging (at least
