NON NUMERIC MODELS

 Influential Decision :
In this case the project is suggested by a senior and powerful official in the
organization. The immediate result of this one statement is the creation of
the project to be investigated. The project is sacred that in the sense it will
be maintained until successfully concluded or terminated by the boss.

 The Operating Necessity :


If a flood is threatening a plant ,the project to build a protective barrier
does not require much formal evaluation. The system worth staying at the
estimated cost of the project ….if the answer is yes the project cost will be
examined to make sure they are kept as low as it is consistent with project
success .But the project will be funded
 The Competitive Necessity :
A business unit may have started a project some years ago, it becomes
apparent that the business may require modernization of the firm wanted to
maintain the competitive position in the market. Such desire to maintain the
market position is the competitive necessity for the firm.

 The Product Line Extension :


In this case the project to develop and distribute new products would be
judged on the degree to which it fits the firms existing product line, fills gaps,
strengthens a weak link, or extends a line in a new, desirable direction.
Sometimes careful calculations of profitability are not required. Decision
makers can act on their beliefs about what will be the likely impact on the total
system performance if the new product is added to the line.

 Comparative Benefit Model :


When the organization has multiple projects to fulfill the goals, a comparative
model is considered for selection of the project. The difficulty may be
encountered as the projects base for measurements may not be same.
However generally financial benefit of to the organization is kept as basic
property.
NUMERIC MODELS : PROFIT/PROFITABILITY
A large majority of all firms using project evaluation and selection models
use profitability as the sole measure of acceptability. Following are the
models used.
 Payback period : The payback period for the project is the initial fixed
investment in the project divided by the estimated annual net cash
inflows from the project
 Average Rate of Return : The average rate of return is the ratio of the
average annual profit to the initial or average investment in the project .
 Discounted Cash Flow : The discounted cash flow method determines
the next present values of all cash flows by discounting them by the
required rate of return known as the hurdle rate, cut-off rate.
 Profitability Index : Also known as the benefit-cost ratio, the profitability
index is the net present value of all future expected cash flows divided by
the initial cash investment.
