The funds are invested in long-term assets.
The future benefits will occur to the firm over
a series of years.

investments is as follows:
an investment:
the project.
It should provide for an objective and unambiguous way of
separating good projects from bad projects.
It should help ranking of projects according to their true profitability.
It should recognise the fact that bigger cash flows are preferable to
smaller ones and early cash flows are preferable to later ones.
It should help to choose among mutually exclusive projects that
project which maximises the shareholders wealth.
It should be a criterion which is applicable to any conceivable
investment project independent of others.
Evaluation Criteria
1. Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) Criteria
Net Present Value (NPV)
Internal Rate of Return (IRR)
Profitability Index (PI)
2. Non-discounted Cash Flow Criteria
Payback Period (PB)
Discounted Payback Period (DPB)

Acceptance Rule
Accept the project when NPV is positive
NPV > 0
Reject the project when NPV is negative
NPV < 0
May accept the project when NPV is zero
NPV = 0
The NPV method can be used to select
between mutually exclusive projects; the one
with the higher NPV should be selected.

Time value
Measure of true profitability
Value-additivity
Shareholder value
Limitations:
Involved cash flow estimation
Discount rate difficult to determine

Calculation of IRR
Uneven Cash Flows: Calculating IRR by Trial
and Error
15
Calculation of IRR
Level Cash Flows
Let us assume that an investment would cost
Rs 20,000 and provide annual cash inflow of
Rs 5,430 for 6 years.
The IRR of the investment can be found out
as follows:
NPV Rs 20,000 + Rs 5,430(PVAF6,r ) = 0
Rs 20,000 Rs 5,430(PVAF6, r )
PVAF6, r
Rs 20,000
3.683
Rs 5,430
16
Acceptance Rule
Accept the project when r > k.
Reject the project when r < k.
May accept the project when r = k.

Profitability Index
Profitability index is the ratio of the present

Profitability Index
The initial cash outlay of a project is Rs 100,000
20
Acceptance Rule
The following are the PI acceptance rules:
Accept the project when PI is greater than one.
PI > 1
Reject the project when PI is less than one.
PI < 1
May accept the project when PI is equal to one.
PI = 1
The project with positive NPV will have PI

Evaluation of PI Method
It recognises the time value of money.
It is consistent with the shareholder value

Evaluation of Payback
Certain virtues:
Simplicity
Cost effective
Short-term effects
Risk shield
Liquidity
Serious limitations:
Cash flows after payback
Cash flows ignored
Cash flow patterns
Administrative difficulties
Inconsistent with shareholder value

The cash flow pattern of the projects may differ. That is, the
cash flows of one project may increase over time, while those
of others may decrease or vice-versa.
The cash outlays of the projects may differ.
The projects may have different expected lives.

Capital Rationing
Capital rationing refers to a situation where a
firm is not in a position to invest in all
profitable projects due to the constraints on
availability of funds. We know that the
resources are always limited and the
demand for them far exceeds their
availability.
