Investment appraisal is the evaluation of investments with regard to their profitability and/or cost effectiveness. The overall objective is to identify the attractiveness of the investment from the view point of the investor. The methods used are the Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of Return (IRR) and Annuity method. For small scale investments, the payback method and the return on investment method (ROI) are also applied.
