"Capital Asset Investment offers a detailed exposition of the theory, quantitative methods, and applications of capital budgeting. Comprehensive in scope, the author covers all the major topics in the field, providing a balanced treatment of the various approaches to capital project evaluation, exploring their strengths and weaknesses. Capital budgeting decisions involve the largest tangible investments for any firm long-term commitments that are generally irreversible in the short run. Such decisions directly impact on shareholder value and the future viability of the firm. In this book, the author offers a harmonious blend of the old techniques, such as the MAPI method of capital investment appraisal, with the newer, such as the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) and the most recent innovation, the use of real options. Capital Asset Investment: Strategy, Tactics and Tools is essential reading for financial managers, industrial and manufacturing engineering managers and all those involved in forward planning and business strategy formulation and execution. The book will also be of use to students of finance."
