EVALUATION METHODS
Payback (Payback Period = Cost of Project / Annual Cash Inflows)
Discounted Payback (DCF = Actual Cash flows / [1 + i]^n)
Internal Rate of Return (IRR) 0 = P0 + P1/(1+IRR) + P2/(1+IRR)2 + P3/(1+IRR)3 + . . . +Pn/(1+IRR)n
Modified Internal Rate of Return (MIRR) = number of periods (√ Sum of Terminal Cash Flows other than Initial Investment / Initial Investment ) − 1
Profitability Index (PI) = Present Value of Future Cash Flows /Initial Investment Required
Net Present Value (NPV)

MORE COMPLICATIONS
Multiple currencies
Multiple tax rates
Multiple tax systems
Exchange rate fluctuations
Capital flow restrictions
Project specific subsidization – host government
Project specific penalties – host government
Valuing and investing – local currency of host vs domestic currency of parent
