Participants will learn to apply discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis to evaluate if spending money today will generate cash in the future. The course covers methods such as the internal rate of return (IRR) and alternative tools for projects where IRR is not applicable. Risk analysis and mitigation strategies are introduced to support sound investment decisions. Real-world examples from industries like oil, gas, and power illustrate key concepts.
