<p class="MsoFootnoteText" style="text-align: justify; margin: 0in 0.5in 0pt; mso-pagination: none;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: x-small;">Corporate financial objective of stockholder wealth maximization and use of discounted cash flow methods for evaluation of capital projects are two of the well-accepted tenets of financial management. Present project evaluation methods, including the Net Present Value (NPV) technique, do not fully meet the stockholder wealth maximization criteria. This paper attempts to scrutinize the relevance of the NPV method in achieving the wealth maximization objective and suggests an alternative value addition measure, named Net Value Added (NVA). In the NPV method, all cash flows pertaining to a project are lumped together and discounted with one single rate, the weighted average cost of capital. The NVA method advocates that a project&rsquo;s residual (net of its debt servicing) cash flows that belong to stockholders should be classified on the basis of their end-use, viz., equity servicing, capital maintenance, and value creating surplus cash flows.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">&nbsp; </span>As the risks associated with each of these three stockholders&rsquo; cash flows are not the same, they are separately discounted at appropriate rate depending upon the associated risk. Power of time (n) is assigned only to real risk-free rate of return and inflation premium to discount equity servicing and capital maintenance cash flows that are subject to exponential growth over time but not to the risk premium.</span></p>
