Methods to calculate Capital Budgeting • Net Present Value {NPV} • Internal Rate of Return {IRR} • Payback • Accrual Accounting Rate of Return {AARR}
Methods to calculate Capital Budgeting • The NPV & IRR both methods uses the Discounted Cash Flow {DCF}. Discounted Cash Flow {DCF} : It measures all the future value cash inflows & outflows of a project discounted back to the present period. The key feature of DCF is the time value of money, which means that a rupee received today is worth more than a rupee received at any future time. The time value of money is the opportunity cost from not having the money today. Example : 10 Rs invested today at 10% growth per year will fetch you 11 Rs at the end of 1 year, so is only Rs 10 is received after one year from now then its present value is Rs 10 / Rs 11 = 0.9091 Required Rate of Return{RRR} : both the DCF methods i.e. NPV & IRR uses RRR which is the minimum acceptable annual rate of return on an investment decided by the management.
Comparison of NPV with IRR NPV • Expresses calculations in amount • Can always be a unique number • Can be used even if RRR varies for different years IRR • Calculates in terms of percentage • Changes according to the inflows and outflows during the course of project • Cannot be applied when RRR varies for different years
Payback Method It is the method which measures the time it will take to recover the net initial investment in a project. Payback period = Net Initial Investment (Uniform Cash Flows) Annual Future Cash Flows Payback period (Non Uniform Cash Flows) Payback Period = 2 years + Rs 4,00,000 x 1 year = 2.5 years Rs 8,00,000
