About the Course

This course describes the economic viability of an engineering project through the application of net present value, internal rate of return, and payback period analysis. The impacts of depreciation, taxes, inflation, and foreign exchange are addressed. The capital budgeting process is discussed, showing how companies make decisions to optimize their investment portfolio. Risk is mitigated through the application of quantitative techniques such as scenario analysis, sensitivity analysis, and real options analysis.

This course gave a very good introduction on how to establish a project cash flow and use common business valuation metrics to evaluate if a project is financially justifiable.

Loved the course. It was a refresher in a lot of ways . I had problems with spreadsheets as I did not have excel and tried google docs. That was a challenge as I had all my worksheets on a quad and margin exercise book resulting in margins of error . A tutorial on how numbers should be populated on google docs would be a great help..
