This research paper aims to find the degree of the use as well as the trust of the Net Present Value (NPV), Payback Period (PBP), Internal Rate of Returns (IRR) and Accounting Rate of Returns (ARR) as a key capital budgeting method. The research conducted on the listed corporations in Palestine which are 48 company. A questionnaire distributed on 77 financial and project/operations managers in these corporations with 67 responds. The result shows that both discounted and non-discounted cash flows methods are used and trusted by Palestine public corporations. However, on the other hand, the above four methods are volatile in term of use and trust. The most used and trusted capital budgeting method is the Payback period (PBP). This followed by the Net Present Value (NPV). Accounting Rate of Retunes (ARR) becomes third. Thus the least used and trusted method is the Internal Rate of Returns (IRR).

Capital budgeting decisions generally involve the commitment of resources in the current period to secure positive cash flows over time that generate a rate of return in excess of the cost of the funds invested. The most common techniques used to perform this analysis are the Net Present Value (NPV) and the Internal Rate of Return (IRR).Conceptually, these two techniques are substitutable; i.e. the resulting decision from a NPV analysis is identical to the decision from an IRR analysis. In practice, however, the NPV and the IRR can, on occasion, produce conflicting decisions. Specifically, when analyzing mutually exclusive assets the Net Present Value can support one asset while the Internal Rate of Return supports the other. The purpose of this paper is twofold; first, to highlight structural deficiencies in the conventional application of the NPV and the IRR, and second, to demonstrate a procedure to correct for these structural errors.

Dalam rangka masyarakat Indonesia yang modern dan berbasis informasi, pemerintah bekerjasama dengan beberapa perusahaan telekomunikasi swasta menggelar mega-proyek pembangunan jaringan infrastruktur telekomunikasi berupa jaringan backbone kabel serat optik berkecepatan tinggi yang dinamakan Palapa Ring. Tujuan Palapa Ring antara lain untuk mengurangi kesenjangan digital antara Indonesia Bagian Barat & Indonesia Bagian Timur serta menyediakan akses telekomunikasi bagi masyarakat dengan tujuan pemerataan akses informasi untuk meningkatkan kesejahteraan dan mengurangi kemiskinan. Dalam perancangan jaringan ekstensi, parameter diatas ditambah lagi dengan proyeksi kapasitas jaringan yang dibutuhkan untuk beberapa tahun kedepan. Landing Stations ini terdiri dari 12 Kota Pantai beserta analisa penempatannya yang tidak semuanya sama dengan rekomendasi KMI. Untuk proyeksi kebutuhan kapasitas, didapatkan angka kebutuhan kapasitas untuk masing-masing Landing Stations sampai tahun 2033. Penelitian  ini  bertujuan  untuk  menganalisa kelayakan  dari  rencana investasi yang akan dilaksanakan PT. XXX. Rencana investasi ini berupa pembangunan proyek Palapa Ring Barat dengan total investasi sebesar Rp. 1,000,000,000,000 dengan tingkat bunga sebesar 18% & 30%. Dengan alat analisis Payback Period, Discounted Payback Period, Net Present Value, dan Internal Rate Of Return. Tiga alat analisis tersebut dipakai juga oleh PT. XXX untuk mengukur layak atau tidaknya proyek tersebut. Dari hasil analisis dan rencana proyek Palapa Ring Barat diperoleh Payback Period (PP) 3 tahun 1 bulan dan Discounted Payback Period 4 tahun 5 bulan  dari target PT. XXX yaitu 15 tahun, Net Present Value (NPV) Rp. 1,392,644,795,000 dari target yang di tentukan PT. XXX yang hasilnya positif, Internal Rate Of Return (IRR) 35 % dari 18 % & 30 % yang di targetkan oleh PT. XXX. Dan juga didapatkan hasil Subsidi KPBU dari pemerintah Rp. 1,490,772,000,000 dengan rincian simulasi pembayaran selama 15 Tahun dengan Interest 0 % sebesar Rp. 99,384,800,000 / Tahun.

The aim of this research paper is to study the extent of using capital budgeting techniques on choosing the suitable project for investment. The current research study focused on capital budgeting techniques such as Net Present Value NPV, and Internal Rate of Return IRR, and Pay Back period PB, which is considered the main tools in the hands of decision makers in deciding the best possible alternative of investment. In order to achieve the purposes of the study a questionnaire have been created (based on Graham and Harvey survey in 2001), the aim was to cover most of the Jordanian industrial companies despite of their size and ownership in the current year 2017. Resolution data were analyzed using the statistical program SSPS. Finally, the study concluded that, 58% of Jordanian industrial companies use the Net Present Value, 22% use the Payback Period, 12% use the Internal Rate of Return, and the remaining used a combination of the Accounting Rate of Return, Profitability Index, and sensitivity analysis. The current research study is expected to assess management in choosing the best capital budgeting technique in the evaluation of its future investment projects.

In capital budgeting a Fisherian analysis is undertaken to resolve conflicts in rankings which arise when mutually exclusive projects have been evaluated according to the net present value and internal rate of return criteria. Within the literature, the projects which have been subjected to a Fisherian analysis, all have the same required rates of return because the required rate of return is held constant irrespective of the differences in the characteristics of the mutually exclusive projects. The conflict in rankings of mutually exclusive projects is typically ascribed to characteristics such as differences in initial outlay and project life span, disparities in the timing of cash flows, the reinvestment rate assumption, and the difficulties of multiple or no unique internal rate of return when the cash flows are non-conventional. Despite these differences among projects, the same required rate of return is used. The central question which is addressed in this article, is whether the same required rate of return can reasonably be used for the valuation of each of the mutually exclusive projects, as well as when a choice is made from among the mutually exclusive projects. In the discussion this 'conventional wisdom' of a constant required rate of return for both the valuations and the choice of an alternative is questioned, and it is suggested that one of the causes of a conflict in rankings may be the use of incorrectly specified required rates of return. Also presented in this article is a conceptual framework which enables a modified Fisherian analysis.

The enormity of costs associated with long-term assets and the length of exposure to risk of such investments makes it essential to properly evaluate capital budgeting decisions before embarking on them. The estimation of cash flows of uncertain future period itself is problematic and to add a complex technique of project evaluation that will require trial and error could be frustrating. This study is to simplify the estimation of Internal Rate of Return (IRR) without going through the rigours of trial and error process. This study is a method article on the estimation of IRR. The study allows the estimation of IRR even when net present value at two levels are positive or the two are negative instead of the use of interpolation. Investments analysists were advised to properly evaluate projects so that investors will source for funds where the interest rate is lower than the projects’ IRR.
