(a) Opportunity Cost:
(b) Project Evaluation:
To evaluate the long term project, comparison has to make between the present cost of project and expected income or inflow of money from investment. From this chapter we have known that, present value of money and future value of money is not same. So without returning back expected income of the project into a present value, we cannot take long term decision.
(c) Lending decision:
Before taking loan from Bank or Financial Institution installment ability should measure at first. On the basis of the loan repayment schedule amount of installment differs. As an example, Loan Installment of 5 years Term loan and 8 years term loan will not be same. Again term may be yearly, monthly etc. In this situation installment amount will be different too. We can find out term of different installment of different amount of loan and by this we can take decision that, how long of the term of the loan, which way of installment repayment, receiving of how much loan will be suitable for business. Due to the lack of this planning most of the company is declared bankrupt. It should be remember that, loan repayment is obligation for any business and failure of this causes bankruptcy.
