of financial managers. Capital Budgeting: Theory and
Practice shows you how to confront them using
state-of-the-art techniques.
Broken down into four comprehensive sections, Capital

proposals

using different techniques

one of the most important aspects of your firm’s financial
management. Advanced enough for practitioners yet accessible enough
for the novice, Capital Budgeting: Theory and
Practice is your complete guide to understanding and
