Capital Budgeting - The Investment And Financing Decision: Elements Of The Investment Decision And How To Finance The Investment (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798329254228)

This Book will cover the use of risk assessment tools as they relate to capital budgeting and investment decisions and how to use them.

When making long term investment and capital budgeting decisions we need to consider the time value of money. The decision-making process will estimate future cash flows and then apply our time value of money concepts to those future cash flows.

This Book will take a step back in the process, providing tools to best estimate the future cash flows. To make the best decision we will need to estimate what the future cash flows will be and the likelihood of those cash flows, giving us numbers we can apply present value concepts to while also taking into consideration risk.

To help measure risk, the Book will use statistical tools including the population mean, population variance, standard deviation, and coefficient of variation.

We will provide a quick overview of these statistical concepts in general and then consider how we can apply them to measuring risk for investment and capital budgeting decisions.
