Investment Decision
A capital expenditure is an outlay of funds by the firm that is
expected to produce benefits over a period greater than one year.
Capital budgeting is the process of evaluating and selecting long-
term investments.
Key Points
1. Capital budgeting decisions are critical in defining a company’s
business
2. Very large investments frequently consist of smaller investment
decisions that define a business strategy
3. Successful investment decisions lead to the development of
managerial expertise and capabilities that influence the firm’s
choice of future investments.

NPV Rule
The net present value (NPV) is the difference between the
present value of cash inflows and the cash outflows. NPV
estimates the amount of wealth that the project creates.
Minimum Acceptance Criteria: Accept if NPV > 0
Ranking Criteria: Choose the highest NPV
Why NPV Rule?
Time value of money.
It consider CFs, not accounting income
It consider the risk associated with the project
Value Additivity (NPV(A + B) = NPV(A) + NPV(B) )
Wealth Maximization: The value of the firm rises by the NPV of the
project
Calculating NPV with Spreadsheets (NPV function)

Payback Vs NPV
Examine the three projects and note the mistake we
would make if we insisted on only taking projects with a
payback period of 2 years or less.

IRR: Example
Consider the following project:
$50 $100 $150
0 1 2 3
-$200 0 200
$50
$100
$150
(1 IRR) (1 IRR) 2 (1 IRR) 3 IRR =19.44%
If we graph NPV versus discount rate, we can see the IRR as the x-axis intercept.
For a typical project NPV is +ve for discount rate below IRR and –ve for above IRR

Profitability Index
The profitability index (PI) is a cost-benefit ratio equal
to the present value of an investment’s future cash flows
divided by its initial cost.
Decision Criteria:
If PI is greater than one, the NPV will be positive, and the
investment should be accepted
When PI is less than one, which indicates a bad investment,
NPV will be negative, and the project should be rejected.
