Capital budgeting decisions are related to allocation of investible funds to different long-term

assets. They have long-term implications and affect the future growth and profitability of the

firm.

In evaluating such investment proposals, it is important to carefully consider the expected

benefits of investment against the expenses associated with it.

Organizations are frequently faced with Capital Budgeting decisions. Any decision that

less a continuous process in any growing concern.

 These days almost everyone is investing in something… even if it’s a savings account

at the local bank or a checking account the earns interest or the home they bought to live in.

However, many people are overwhelmed when they being to consider the concept of

investing, let alone the laundry list of choices for investment vehicles. Even though it may

seem the everyone and their brothers knows exactly who, what and when to invest in so they

can make killing, please don’t be fooled. Before you can confidently choose an investment

path that will help you achieve your personal goals and objectives, it’s vitally important that

you understand the basics about the types of investments available. Knowledge is your

strongest ally when it comes to weeding out bad investment advice and is crucial to

successful investing whether you go at it alone or use a professional.

The investment option before you are many. Pick the right investment tool based on the risk

profile, circumstance, time available etc. if you feel the market volatility is something, which

you can live with then buy stocks. However, remember that risk and returns are directly

proportional to each other. Higher the risk, higher the returns.

TYPES OF INVESTMENT OPTIONS

A brief preview of different investment options is given below:

Equities:

Investment in shares of companies is investing in equities.

Stocks can be brought/sold from the exchanges (secondary market) or via IPO’s – Initial

Public Offerings (primary market). Stocks are the best long-term investment options wherein

the market volatility and the resultant risk of losses, if given enough time, are mitigated by

the general upward momentum of the economy. There are two streams of revenue generation

from this form of investment.

1. Dividend: Periodic payments made out of the company’s profits are termed as dividends.

2. Growth: The price of the stock appreciates commensurate to the growth posted by the

company resulting in capital appreciation.

On an average an investment in equities in India has a return of 25%. Good portfolio

management, precise timing may ensure a return of 40% or more. Picking the right stock at

the right time would guarantee that your capital gains i.e. growth in market value of stock

possessions, will rise.

Bonds: It is a fixed income (debt) instrument issued for a period of more than one year with

the purpose of raising capital. The central or state government, corporations and similar

institutions sell bonds. A bond is generally a promise to repay the principal along with fixed

rate of interest on a specified date, called as the maturity date. Other fixed income

instruments include bank deposits, debentures, preference shares etc.

The average rate of return on bond and securities in India has been around 10-16% p.a.

Precious Projects: Precious objects are items that are generally small in size but highly

valuable in monetary terms. Some important precious objects are like the gold, silver,

precious stones and also the unique art objects.
