34. EVALUATION AND ANALYSIS OF INVESTMENT PROJECTS. INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE INDICATORS. CALCULATION AND ANALYSIS OF THE MAIN INDICATORS OF THE EFFICIENCY OF INVESTMENT COSTS INCLUDING THE DISCOUNT RATE

Having calculated the present future cash flows for the project, it is necessary to understand How effective is the proposed project and is it worth investing in it?. It is also necessary to compare the main investment indicators with data from other projects. Perhaps they will turn out to be more attractive and will return the funds invested in them faster, and most importantly, they will bring higher profits in the future.

Investment efficiency indicators allow you to determine the effectiveness of investing in a particular project. When analyzing investment projects, the following investment performance indicators:

▪ payback period - PB (Payback period);

▪ discounted payback period - DBP (Discounted payback period);

▪ average rate of return - ARR (Average rate of return);

▪ net present value - NPV (Net present value);

▪ profitability index - PI (Profitability index);

▪ internal rate of return - IRR (Internal rate of return);

▪ modified internal rate of return - MIRR (Modified internal rate of return).

When calculating performance indicators cash flows are discounted. This takes into account the change in the value of money over time. The discount rate plays the role of a factor that generally characterizes the impact of the macroeconomic environment and financial market conditions.

Discount rate is a parameter that allows you to compare the project with alternative investment opportunities. As such an alternative, bank deposits or investments in government securities are usually considered.

The discount rate affects only the calculation of performance indicators.

Content Cash flow and other financial reports does not depend on the discount rate. When calculating cash flows, it is best not to calculate the discount rate, since in order to determine all investment ratios, the calculation must be free.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

Milk began to drink in the Urals 02.12.2005

According to experts, more than half of the world's population is unable to digest milk in adulthood.

The babies of all mammals have a special enzyme for digesting milk sugar - lactose. But in most mammals, and in many humans, the lactose-producing gene is turned off as adults, and milk is no longer digested.

A group of Finnish biologists led by Lena Peltonen from the University of Helsinki, after analyzing DNA samples from different peoples from four continents, came to the conclusion that the mutation that allowed the lactose gene to work in adults occurred for the first time among the peoples living between the Urals and the Volga.

It happened 4800-6600 years ago. From here, during the migrations of peoples, a useful gene spread to Europe (especially to the north of Europe, where the majority of the population absorbs milk well) and to the Middle East.

In addition to the love of milk, these peoples brought with them the languages ​​that we now call Indo-European.
