Capital Budgeting

Capital budgeting is finance terminology for the process of deciding whether or not to undertake

an investment project. There are two standard concepts used in capital budgeting: net present

value (NPV) and internal rate of return (IRR). We will discuss their application to capital

budgeting. Here are some of the topics covered:

• Should you undertake a specific project? We call this the “yes–no” decision, and we show how

both NPV and IRR answer this question.

• Ranking projects: If you have several alternative investments, only one of which you can

choose, which should you undertake?

• Should you use IRR or NPV? Sometimes the IRR and NPV decision criteria give different

answers to the yes–no and the ranking decisions. We discuss why this happens and which

criterion should be used for capital budgeting (if there’s disagreement).

• Sunk costs. How should you account for costs incurred in the past?

• The cost of foregone opportunities.

• Salvage values and terminal values.
