Capital Expenditures & Criteria for Evaluating Business Investment

Business Operations


Description

A critical decision facing many small business owners is capital expenditures or CAPEX. A business that wants to grow by launching new products or service lines or expanding into a geographical region may have to undertake capital expenditures. The investment usually calls for a substantial upfront outlay of cash, in exchange for uncertain future profits.

This webinar examines several criteria that can be used to make the investment decision, including: • payback period • return on investment • internal rate of return • net present value

Presenter
