Net present value is based on cash flows, can be used to assess profitability, and takes into account the time value of
money. It has none of the weaknesses of the other two models.

Payback method is easy to understand, is based on cash flows, and highlights risks. However, payback ignores
profitability and the time value of money.

Retirement planning involves two separate annuities:
1) the annual cash savings (from age 20 to age 40) and
2) the annual withdrawals (from age 40 to age 85).
To find the amount of annual savings needed, we perform a two- step process:
First, we discount the retirement withdrawals back to their present value (at age 40).
Second, we set that amount equal to the future value of the savings annuity.

Annual cash withdrawals × (Annuity PV factor, i = 10=4%, n = 45)

By age 40, you need to have accumulated a sum of $1,567,060.

1. Describe the capital budgeting process in your own words.
2. Define capital investment. List at least three examples of capital investments other than the examples provided
3. “As the required rate of return increases, the net present value of a project also increases.” Explain why you
agree or disagree with this statement.
4. Summarize the net present value method for evaluating a capital investment opportunity. Describe the
circumstances that create a positive net present value. Describe the circumstances that may cause the net
present value of a project to be negative. Describe the advantages and disadvantages of the net present value
method.
5. Net cash inflows and net cash outflows are used in the net present value method and in the internal rate of
return method. Explain why accounting net income is not used instead of cash flows.
6. Suppose you are a manager and you have three potential capital investment projects from which to choose.
Funds are limited, so you can only choose one of the three projects. Describe at least three methods you can
7. The net present value method assumes that future cash inflows are immediately reinvested at the required rate
of return, while the internal rate of return method assumes that future cash inflows are immediately invested at
8. The decision rule for NPV analysis states that the project with the highest NPV should be selected. Describe at
least two situations when the project with the highest NPV may not necessarily be the best project to select.
9. List and describe the advantages and disadvantages of the internal rate of return method.
10. List and describe the advantages and disadvantages of the payback method.
11. Oftentimes, investments in sustainability projects do not meet traditional investment selection criteria. Suppose
