    in such a way where the cost can be minimi=ed and the desired leel of accuracy can be

    achieed to arrie at a particular conclusion$

    8apital rationing is a situation where a firm has more inestment proposals than it can

    combination of inestment proposals which proides the highest net present alue subject

    to the budget constraint for the period$ *electing or rejecting the projects for this purpose

    NET PRESENT *ALUE:

    The et Present 3alue technique inoles discounting net cash flows for

    a project# then subtracting net inestment from the discounted net cash flows$ The result

    is called the et Present 3alue (P3)$ If the net present alue is positie# adopting the

    project would add to the alue of the company$ 7hether the company chooses to do that

    will depend on their selection strategies$ If they pic' all projects that add to the alue of

    the company they would choose all projects with positie net present alues# een if that

    alue is just F/$ On the other hand# if they hae limited resources# they will ran' the

    projects and pic' those with the highest P3Gs$

    The discount rate used most frequently is the companyGs cost of capital$

    et present alue (P3) or net present worth (P7)H is defined as the total present

    alue (P3) of a time series of cash flows$ It is a standard method for using the time

    alue of money to appraise long;term projects$ %sed for capital budgeting# and widely

    throughout economics# it measures the e2cess or shortfall of cash flows# in present alue

    terms# once financing charges are met$

    The rate used to discount future cash flows to their present alues is a 'ey

    ariable of this process$ A firmGs weighted aerage cost of capital (after ta2) is often

    used# but many people beliee that it is appropriate to use higher discount rates to adjust

    for ris' for ris'ier projects or other factors$ A ariable discount rate with higher rates

    applied to cash flows occurring further along the time span might be used to reflect the

    yield cure premium for long;term debt$

    INTERNAL RATE OF RETURN:

  • 7/27/2019 FinaFinal Post Evaluation of Capital Budgetingl Post Evaluation of Capital Budgeting

    23/72

    The internal rate of return (IRR) is a 8apital budgeting metric used by firms to

    decide whether they should ma'e Inestments$It is also called discounted cash flow

    rate of return (89ROR) or rate of return (ROR)$

    It is an indicator of the efficiency or quality of an inestment# as opposed to etpresent alue (P3)# which indicates alue or magnitude$

    />

    The IRR is the annuali=ed effectie compounded return rate which can be earned

    on the inested capital# i$e$# the yieldon the inestment$ Put another way# the internal

    rate of return for an inestment is the discount rate that ma'es the net present alue of

    the inestmentGs income stream total to =ero$

    Another definition of IRR is the interest rate receied for an inestment consisting

    of payments and income that occur at regular periods$

    A project is a good inestment proposition if its IRR is greater than the rate of

    return that could be earned by alternate inestments of equal ris' (inesting in other

    projects# buying bonds# een putting the money in a ban' account)$ Thus# the IRR

    should be compared to any alternate costs of capital including an appropriate ris'

    premium$

    In general# if the IRR is greater than the projectGs cost of capital# or hurdle rate,

    the project will add alue for the company$

    In the conte2t of saings and loans the IRR is also called effectie interest rate$

    In cases where one project has a higher initial inestment than a second mutually

    e2clusie project# the first project may hae a lower IRR (e2pected return)# but a higher

    P3 (increase in shareholdersG wealth) and should thus be accepted oer the second

    project (assuming no capital constraints)$

    IRR assumes reinestment of positie cash flows during the project at the same

    calculated IRR$ 7hen positie cash flows cannot be reinested bac' into the project#

    IRR oerstates returns$ IRR is best used for projects with singular positie cash flows at

    the end of the project period$

    et another time adjusted method of ealuating the inestment proposals is the

    benefit;cost (!8) ratio or profitability inde2$ Profitability inde2 is the ratio of the

    present alue of cash inflows at the required rate of return# to the initial cash out flow of

    the inestment$

    The ris' of the project can be tac'led by haing a shorter standard paybac'

    many projects where the cash inflows and life e2pectancies are highly uncertain$ %nder

    such circumstances# pay bac' may become important# not so much as a measure of

    profitability but# as a means of establishing an upper bound on the acceptable degree of

    ris'$

    /B

    DISCOUNTED PAYBAC+ PERIOD:

    One of the serious objections to the paybac' method is that it does not discount

    the cash flows for calculating the paybac' period$ 7e can discount cash flows and then

    calculate the paybac'$

    The discounted pay bac' period is the no$ of$ Periods ta'en in recoering the

    INTRODUCTION TO CEMENT:

    In the most general sense of the word# cement is a binder# a substance

    which sets and hardens independently# and can bind other materials together$ The word

    KcementK traces to the Romans#who used the term Kopus caementiciumK to describe

    masonry which resembled concrete and was made from crushed roc' with burnt limeas

    binder$ The olcanic ash and puleri=ed bric' addities which were added to the burnt

    lime to obtain a hydraulic binder were later referred to as cementum# cimentum# cLment

    and cement$ 8ements used in construction are characteri=ed as "d%#$& or n'n

    "d%#$&$

    The most important use of cement is the production of mortarand concreteMthe

    bonding of natural or artificial aggregates to form a strong building material which is
