Introduction:
A project is an investment activity where we expend capital
resources to create a producing asset from which we can expect
to realize benefits over an extended period of time. Or a project is
an activity on which we will spend money in expectation of
returns and which logically seems to lend itself to planning,
financing and implementation as a unit. A project should have the
following characteristics.
1. It should have a specific starting point and specific ending
point.
2. Its major costs and returns are measurable
3. It should have a specific geographic location
4. It should have a specific clientele group
5. It should have a well-defined time sequence of investment and
production activities.

Project Evaluation:
The methods/criteria more often used for evaluating a project are
(1) Simple rate of return (SRR)
(2) Payback Period (PBP)
(3) Benefit Cost Ratio (BCR)
(4) Net present Value (NVP) or Net Present Worth (NPW) and
(5) Internal Rate of Return (IRR).
The SRR and the PBP are the undiscounted measures while BCR,
NPV and IRR are the discounted measures of project worth of
Investment.

Types of project evaluation factors:


i. Production 1. Time until ready to install.
