Often managers are asked to have an NPV (or DCF) calculation done on projects they are proposing. This NPV calculation will typically be performed by the Finance team. But what are they actually doing?
If we take this into the business world and you were doing a project that required the business to invest £100k as a result of which the business was going to get cost savings in year one of £50k and savings in year 2 of £70k, is this worthwhile for the business.
It depends again on how well the business could use this £100k elsewhere on other projects. The accountant will use the NPV technique to determine whether the project is worthwhile for the business.
If you want to know more about how the NPV process works we can provide in house courses focused on how your business assesses its projects.
