 Capital budgeting is 

a process of evaluating investments and


huge expenses in order to obtain the best returns on
investment.
 An organization is often faced with the challenges of selecting
between two projects/investments or the buy vs replace
decision.

Time Value of Money


 It indicates that money earned today will be more than in its
intrinsic value in the near future.
 Present Value – When future payment or series of payments are
discounted at the given rate of interest up to the present date to
reflect time value of money, the resulting value is called as
present value
 Future Value – An amount obtained by enhancing the value of
a present or a series of payments at the given rate of interest.
 Interest – It is charge against use of money paid by borrower to
the lender.
 Discount Rate - It is the interest rate used to determine the
present value of future cash flows in a discounted cash flow
(DCF) analysis. This helps determine if the future cash flows
from a project or investment will be worth more than the capital
outlay needed to fund the project or investment in the present.
Capital Budgeting Techniques
1. NPA
 Net present value (NPV) is the difference between the present value of
cash inflows and the present value of cash outflows over a period of
time.
 NPV is used in capital budgeting and investment planning to analyze the
profitability of a projected investment or project.
 For Example,
Calculation of Net Present Value of Cash Flows
Year Cash Flow PVIF@10% DCF
1 20,000 0.9091 18,182
2 16,000 0.8264 13,222
3 20,000 0.7513 15,026
4 30,000 0.6830 20,490
5 10,000 0.6209 6,209
Present Value of Cash Flows 73,129
Less:- Initial Outlay 60,000
Net Present Value 13,129
Conclusion:- Since NPV is positive, it is worthwhile to invest into
the project.

2. Internal Rate of Return (IRR)


 It is a metric used in capital budgeting measuring the
profitability of potential investments.
 It is the discount rate that makes the NPV equal to zero.
 It is determined using trial & error method.
 Formula:-
NPV 1
IRR = R1 + NPV 1−NPV 2 × (R2 – R1)

Where, R1 = Lower Discount Rate


R2 = Higher Discount Rate
NPV1 = Higher NPV (derived from R1)
NPV2 = Lower NPV (derived from R2)
 For Example,
Calculation of Present Value of Cash Flows
Year Cash PVIF PVIF
Flow
@ 10% DCF @ 15% DCF
1 7,00,000 0.909 6,36,300 0.870 6,09,000
2 7,00,000 0.826 5,78,200 0.756 5,29,200
3 8,00,000 0.751 6,01,800 0.658 5,26,400
4 8,00,000 0.683 5,46,400 0.572 4,57,600
5 9,00,000 0.621 5,58,900 0.497 4,47,300
6 9,00,000 0.564 5,07,600 0.432 3,88,800
7 10,00,000 0.513 5,13,000 0.376 3,76,000
8 10,00,000 0.467 4,67,000 0.327 3,27,000
9 8,00,000 0.424 3,39,200 0.284 2,27,200
10 6,00,000 0.386 2,31,600 0.247 1,48,200
PV of Cash Flows 49,79,000 40,36,700
Less:- Initial Outlay 40,00,000 40,00,000
Net Present Value 9,79,000 36,700

NPV 1
IRR = R1 + NPV 1−NPV 2 × (R2 – R1)
Where, R1 = Lower Discount Rate
R2 = Higher Discount Rate
NPV1 = Higher NPV (derived from R1)
NPV2 = Lower NPV (derived from R2)

9,79,000
IRR = 10 + 9,79,000−36,700 × (15 – 10)
= 10 + 1.0389 × 5 = 15.1945%
3. Profitability Index (PI)
 The profitability index (PI) is a measure of a project's or
investment's attractiveness when funds available are in short
supply.
 The PI is calculated by dividing the present value of future
expected cash flows by the initial investment amount in the
project.
 It is a useful tool for ranking projects because it allows you to
quantify the amount of value created per unit of investment.
 Formula :-

4. Payback Period / Discounted Payback Period


 The payback period represents the number of years it takes to
pay back the initial investment of a capital in project, from the
cash flows that the project produces.
 Calculation of Payback Period
Initial Outlay – Rs.60,000

5 10,000 96,000

Leverage
 Leverage is the amount of debt a company has in its mix of
debt and equity (its capital structure).
 A company with more debt than average for its industry is said
to be highly leveraged.
 In simple words, when you borrow money to make an
investment that will hopefully lead to greater returns.
