- Capital budgeting includes long-term decisions about non-current assets of a company.
- Decisions about non-current assets need extra attention from managers because they are more expensive than the current assets.
- The outcome of capital budgeting is either approval or rejection of the investment project.
- In order to come to approval or rejection point, a financial manager needs analytical tools to make analysis.
- There are a number of simple and sophisticated analytical tools that managers use for project analysis.
- Main consideration is “return and risk” and “benefit and cost” of each project proposal.
- In the end, if a financial manager approves an investment project, we can assume that he/she thinks that returns/benefits from the project will be greater than the associated risks/costs.
