The Key Principles in Project Appraisal Using Discounted Cash Flows (Lin Nagalingam 36; Bouwman 1-29)

A.

When appraising multi-period investments, where anticipated advantages and charges and associated money inflows and outflows originate over time, the time worth of cash should be taken into account.

B.

The time worth of cash should be comprised by the opening cost of capital.
