Capital Budgeting Process
Intermediate RegimeForge lesson on Capital Budgeting Process focused on judging whether long-term projects create value after timing, risk, reinvestment, and opportunity cost are included. Students learn to use Project value = present value of incremental after-tax cash inflows - initial investment - required working capital. as a framework, read evidence such as incremental cash flow, initial investment, terminal value, and working capital, avoid including accounting profit instead of cash flow or accepting the highest IRR without checking scale and reinvestment assumptions, and identify the concept through statements, filings, market dashboards, operating behavior, and regime shifts.
Capital Budgeting / IntermediateCapital Rationing
Intermediate RegimeForge lesson on Capital Rationing focused on judging whether long-term projects create value after timing, risk, reinvestment, and opportunity cost are included. Students learn to use Project value = present value of incremental after-tax cash inflows - initial investment - required working capital. as a framework, read evidence such as incremental cash flow, initial investment, terminal value, and working capital, avoid including accounting profit instead of cash flow or accepting the highest IRR without checking scale and reinvestment assumptions, and identify the concept through statements, filings, market dashboards, operating behavior, and regime shifts.
Capital Budgeting / IntermediateEquivalent Annual Cost
Intermediate RegimeForge lesson on Equivalent Annual Cost focused on judging whether long-term projects create value after timing, risk, reinvestment, and opportunity cost are included. Students learn to use Project value = present value of incremental after-tax cash inflows - initial investment - required working capital. as a framework, read evidence such as incremental cash flow, initial investment, terminal value, and working capital, avoid including accounting profit instead of cash flow or accepting the highest IRR without checking scale and reinvestment assumptions, and identify the concept through statements, filings, market dashboards, operating behavior, and regime shifts.
Capital Budgeting / IntermediateInternal Rate of Return
Intermediate RegimeForge lesson on Internal Rate of Return focused on judging whether long-term projects create value after timing, risk, reinvestment, and opportunity cost are included. Students learn to use IRR is the discount rate that sets NPV equal to zero. as a framework, read evidence such as incremental cash flow, initial investment, terminal value, and working capital, avoid ranking projects only by IRR when cash-flow patterns are unconventional, and identify the concept through statements, filings, market dashboards, operating behavior, and regime shifts.
Capital Budgeting / IntermediateNet Present Value
Intermediate RegimeForge lesson on Net Present Value focused on judging whether long-term projects create value after timing, risk, reinvestment, and opportunity cost are included. Students learn to use NPV = sum of discounted incremental cash flows - initial investment. as a framework, read evidence such as incremental cash flow, initial investment, terminal value, and working capital, avoid including sunk costs or using accounting profit instead of incremental cash flow, and identify the concept through statements, filings, market dashboards, operating behavior, and regime shifts.
Capital Budgeting / IntermediatePayback and Discounted Payback
Intermediate RegimeForge lesson on Payback and Discounted Payback focused on judging whether long-term projects create value after timing, risk, reinvestment, and opportunity cost are included. Students learn to use Payback period = time needed for cumulative cash inflows to recover the initial investment. as a framework, read evidence such as incremental cash flow, initial investment, terminal value, and working capital, avoid treating payback as a full value measure, and identify the concept through statements, filings, market dashboards, operating behavior, and regime shifts.
Capital Budgeting / IntermediateProfitability Index
Intermediate RegimeForge lesson on Profitability Index focused on judging whether long-term projects create value after timing, risk, reinvestment, and opportunity cost are included. Students learn to use Project value = present value of incremental after-tax cash inflows - initial investment - required working capital. as a framework, read evidence such as incremental cash flow, initial investment, terminal value, and working capital, avoid including accounting profit instead of cash flow or accepting the highest IRR without checking scale and reinvestment assumptions, and identify the concept through statements, filings, market dashboards, operating behavior, and regime shifts.
Capital Budgeting / IntermediateProject Cash Flows
Intermediate RegimeForge lesson on Project Cash Flows focused on judging whether long-term projects create value after timing, risk, reinvestment, and opportunity cost are included. Students learn to use Project value = present value of incremental after-tax cash inflows - initial investment - required working capital. as a framework, read evidence such as incremental cash flow, initial investment, terminal value, and working capital, avoid including accounting profit instead of cash flow or accepting the highest IRR without checking scale and reinvestment assumptions, and identify the concept through statements, filings, market dashboards, operating behavior, and regime shifts.
Capital Budgeting / IntermediateReplacement Decisions
Intermediate RegimeForge lesson on Replacement Decisions focused on judging whether long-term projects create value after timing, risk, reinvestment, and opportunity cost are included. Students learn to use Project value = present value of incremental after-tax cash inflows - initial investment - required working capital. as a framework, read evidence such as incremental cash flow, initial investment, terminal value, and working capital, avoid including accounting profit instead of cash flow or accepting the highest IRR without checking scale and reinvestment assumptions, and identify the concept through statements, filings, market dashboards, operating behavior, and regime shifts.
Capital Budgeting / IntermediateScenario and Sensitivity Analysis
Intermediate RegimeForge lesson on Scenario and Sensitivity Analysis focused on judging whether long-term projects create value after timing, risk, reinvestment, and opportunity cost are included. Students learn to use Project value = present value of incremental after-tax cash inflows - initial investment - required working capital. as a framework, read evidence such as incremental cash flow, initial investment, terminal value, and working capital, avoid including accounting profit instead of cash flow or accepting the highest IRR without checking scale and reinvestment assumptions, and identify the concept through statements, filings, market dashboards, operating behavior, and regime shifts.
