Abstract

Investments usually involve the procurement of assets for which using marginal analysis may not be adequate in evaluating their worth to an economic activity in an enterprise. Furthermore, all the costs involved in the purchase of fixed assets are not ordinarily charged to the account of a production period. It is against his background that this chapter focuses on the concept of measures of project worth with a view to enabling farmers to obviate related problems in capital budgeting, non-discounted measures of project worth (pay-back period, average rate of return), discounted measures of project worth, benefit-cost analysis, net present value, decision criteria in using the net present value, internal rate of return, calculating the IRR, and interpreting the IRR. Discussions were based on a review of related and relevant literature. Conclusions and recommendations are made based on the discussions.
