Capital Investments Decisions : Importance and Difficulties
Importance
Long – term effects (firm future activities depend on current decisions)
Irreversibility (hard to change investment decision)
Substantial outlays (involves huge cost)
Difficulties
Measurement problems (identify & measure cost & benefits of project)
Uncertainty (very hard to predict future)
Temporal spread (hard to predict long term interest rates)

Capital Budgeting Process
Planning
Preliminary screening of various available projects
Identify project proposal
Conduct preliminary project analysis
Whether project on prima facie is worthwhile for full feasibility report
What areas require in-depth analysis

Capital Budgeting Process
Analysis
If Preliminary screening suggest that project on prima facie is worthwhile then detailed analysis is conducted
Marketing

The focus this phase is to gather, prepare, and summarize relevant information about various projects

Capital Budgeting Process
Selection
It often overlap analysis Phase.
Addresses the question……Is the project worthwhile?
there are two techniques for project selection
1. Non-Discounting Criteria
Pay Back Period Accounting Rate of Return
2. Discounting Criteria
NPV IRR Internal Rate of return
• There should be suitable cut off value or rate (hurdle rate, target rate, and cost of capital)

Capital Budgeting Process
Financing
Equity or Debt
Risk, income, control, and taxes influence the choice
there are two techniques for project selection
Implementation
Translating an investment proposal into concrete project is a complex, time consuming, and risky.
Improper implementation will lead to cost over run
To avoid cost overrun:
1. Be flexible and adapt to shock and surprises, as every thing cannot be planned

2. Assign responsibility to project manager for timely completion with adequate cost control
3. Use of network techniques
• PERT (Program Evaluation Review Technique)
• CPM (Critical Path Method)
Review
It should be done periodically to compare actual and projected performance.

Objective of Capital Budgeting
Finance theory rests on the premise that managers should manage their firm’s resources with the objective of enhancing the firm’s market value. This goal has been eloquently defended by distinguished finance scholars, economists, and practitioners. Wit the following :
“ The quest for value drives scarce resources to their most productive uses and their most efficient users. The more effectively resources are deployed, the more robust will be the economic growth and the rate of improvement in our standard of living.”

Key Issues in Major Investment Decisions
• Investment story
• Risks and return trade off
• Impact on firm value

Common Weaknesses in Capital Budgeting
Poor alignment between strategy and capital budgeting
Deficiencies in analytical techniques
Poor identification of base case
Inadequate treatment of risk
Improper evaluation of options
Lack of uniformity in assumptions
Neglect of side effects
No linkage between compensation and financial measures
Reverse financial engineering
Weak integration between capital budgeting and expense budgeting
Inadequate post - audits

SUMMING UP
Essentially a capital project represents a scheme for investing resources that
can be analysed and appraised reasonably independently.
The basic characteristic of a capital project is that it typically involves a
current outlay (or current and future outlays) of funds in the expectation of a
stream of benefits extending far into the future.
Capital expenditure decisions often represent the most important decisions
taken by a firm. Their importance stems from three inter-related reasons:
long-term effects, irreversibility, and substantial outlays.
While capital expenditure decisions are extremely important, they pose
difficulties which stem from three principal sources: measurement problems,
uncertainty, and temporal spread.
Capital budgeting is a complex process which may be divided into six broad
phases: planning, analysis, selection, financing, implementation and review.
![Page 20: Chapter 1 Overview](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051401/55cf903b550346703ba41b30/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
One can look at capital budgeting decisions at three levels: operating,
administrative, and strategic.
The important facets of project analysis are: market analysis, technical
analysis, financial analysis, economic analysis, and ecological analysis.
Financial theory, in general, rests on the premise that the goal of financial
management should be to maximize the present wealth of the firm’s equity
shareholders. Business firms may pursue other goals. When these other goals
conflict with the goal of maximizing the wealth of equity shareholders, the
trade-off has to be understood.
The common weaknesses found in capital budgeting systems in practice are:
poor alignment between strategy and capital budgeting; deficiencies in
analytical techniques; no linkage between compensation and financial
measures; reverse financial engineering; weak integration between capital
budgeting and expense budgeting; inadequate post-audits.
