Abstract: Abstract Money is a scarce commodity. In nearly all firms the amount of money available for capital investments is limited. Hence, the management function must have some criteria for the acceptance, rejection or postponement of investment proposals. It must also have some cardinal system by which investments can be ranked for acceptance by the firm.
