The similarities and differences between NPV, PI and EVA.

Introduction:

The difference between the present value of cash inflows and the present value of cash outflows over a period of time is known as the Net Present value. NPV is used in capital budgeting as a criterion to analyze the profitability of projects. PI is the Profitability Index which is an index that measures that the costs and benefits of a project as the ratio of present value of future cash flows to the initial investment. EVA is the Economic Value Added which is a measure of the economic profit of the company. EVA is calculated by deducting the cost of capital from the operating profit after adjusting for taxes.
