DEFINITION-
 Capital budgeting is the planning process used to determine whether
an organizations long term investments such as new machinery ,
replacement machinery ,new plants new products and research
development projects are worth the funding of cash through the firms
capitalization structure (debt ,equity or retained earnings)..

IMPORTANCE OF CAPITAL
BUDGETING-
INVOLVEMENT OF HEAVY FUND-
Capital budgeting decisions require large capital outlays. It is therefore
absolutely necessary that the firm should carefully plan they are put tomost
profitable use.
LONG TERM IMPLICATION-
The effect of capital budgeting decision will be felt by the firm over a long
period and therefore they have decisive influence on the rate and direction
of the growth of the firm.
 IRREVERSIBLE DECISION-
In most cases, capital budgeting decisions are irreversible.
This is because it is very difficult to find a market for the capital
assets. The only alternative will be to scrap the capital assets
so purchased or sell them at a substantial loss in the event of
the decision being proved wrong.
MOST DIFFICULT TO MAKE-
The capital budgeting decision require an assessment of future
events which are uncertain . It is really difficult task to estimate
the probable future events, the probable benefits and cost
accurately in quantitative terms because of economic ,political,
social , and technological factors.
TECHNIQUES OF CAPITAL
BUDGETING-
 Pay Back Method
 Accounting rate of return
 Net Present Value
 Profitability Index
PAY BACK PERIOD-
 The payback period is the length of time required to recover
the initial cost of theproject. The payback period therefore
can be looked upon as the length of time required for a
proposal to break even on its net investment.
 CALCULATION OF PAYBACK PERIOD-
 When Annual Inflow are Equal.
 When the Annual Cash Inflow are Unequal
MERITS-
 Simple to calculate
 Liquidity Indications
 Break even of investment can be calculated.
 DEMERITS-
Ignores the profitability factor.
Its is the method of recovery.
Ignores salvage Value.
Ignores the time value of money.
ACCEPT / REJECT CRIETERIA-
 If the actual pay-back period is less than the predeterminedpay-back
period, the project would be accepted. If not, it would be rejected.
AVERAGE RATE OF RETURN-
 Average rate of return means the average rate of return or profit takenfor
considering the project evaluation. This method is one of the traditional
methods for evaluating the project proposals:
 MERITS-
 1.It is easy to calculate and simple to understand.
 2. It is based on the accounting information rather than cashinflow.
 3. It is not based on the time value of money.
 4. It considers the total benefits associated with the project.
 DEMERITS-
 It ignores the time value of money.
 It ignores the reinvestment potential of a project.
ACCEPT / REJECT CRITERIA-
 If the actual accounting rate of return is more than the
predetermined required rate of return, the project would be
accepted. If not it would be rejected.
PROFITIBILITY INDEX-
 It is also a time adjusted method of evaluating investment proposal .
Profitability index also called as Benefit- Cost ratio or desirability factor is
relationship between present value of cash inflow and the present value of
cash outflow.
 FORMULA-
Present Value of Cash Inflow
Profitability Index =
Present Value of Cash Outflow
/Investment
MERITS-
 It is consistent with goal of maximizing the shareholders wealth.
 It uses cash flow.
 It recognized the time value of money.
DEMERITS-
The main demerit of this method is that is requires detailed long term
forecast of incremental benefits and costs. Its also have the difficultyin
determining appropriate discount rate.
Net present Value method :
NPV of an investment proposal may be defined as “ the sum of
present value of all the cash inflows less the sum of present values
of all cash outflow associated with a proposal”
NPV = Total present value of cash inflow – Initial investment
