Course details
All strategic managers are faced with critical financial decisions such as investing huge amounts of capital, disposing of assets or business segments, and pricing decisions. Successful managers base their decisions on sophisticated capital budgeting methods employing time value of money techniques. Capital budgeting is the process employed by companies to evaluate the profitability or viability of their investment decisions.
The key to success for a manager making financial decisions is capital budgeting and time value of money. It is the single most important tool which helps in all key areas of decision making. Whether it is a decision to replace an asset, change selling prices, increase capacity, evaluate investment projects or even to disinvest; capital budgeting and time value of money will help in making the right decisions.
Capital budgeting decisions are crucial to a firm's success for several reasons. First, capital expenditures typically require large outlays of funds.
Second, firms must ascertain the best way to raise and repay these funds. Third, most capital budgeting decisions require a long-term commitment.
Finally, the timing of capital budgeting decisions is important. When large amounts of funds are raised, firms must pay close attention to the financial markets since the cost of capital is directly related to the current interest rate.
