    The main learning goals of this module are:
      • Know what the Net Cash Flow (NCF) is and we can estimate the NCF of any investment decision.
      • Learn how to incorporate interactions with other projects in the computation of the NCF.
      • Understand that only the cash flows matter that are caused by a specific capital budgeting decision.
      • Know how to treat inflation consistently in project valuation.
      • Understand how non-financial goals such as environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors can be included in project valuation using an Adjusted Present Value (APV) approach.
