UPCOMING EVENTS :     

Capital Expenditures & Criteria for Evaluating Business Investment: 

Hosted by Pace University SBDC

Wed, Aug 12, 2020 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM EDT 

​

A critical decision facing many small business owners is capital expenditures or CAPEX.  A business that wants to grow by launching new products or service lines or expanding into a geographical region may have to undertake capital expenditures.  The investment usually calls for a substantial upfront outlay of cash, in exchange for uncertain future profits.  This webinar will examine several criteria that can be used to make the investment decision, including 

​

• payback period

• return on investment

• internal rate of return

• net present value

​

The session will be led by Padma Kadiyala, Professor at Pace University's Lubin School of Business, and will cover each investment criterion, and compare their relative advantages and disadvantages.​
