ABOUT THE SIMULATION

Students choose between competing investment projects and use payback, average rate of return and net present value to support a recommendation. The simulation helps students see that different methods can point to different decisions, so judgement still matters. It is useful for linking calculations to risk, objectives and non-financial factors.
