投资决策原理
Principles of Investment Decision-making
一、投资决策的基本概念与分类
I. Investment Decision - Making Basics and Classification
1.核心概念
1.Core Concepts
投资：企业为获取未来收益而投放资金于特定项目的经济行为，如购置资产、扩大生产、研发投入等。
Investment refers to the economic act of allocating funds to specific projects by enterprises to gain future profits, such as purchasing assets, expanding production, and R & D investment.
决策目标：通过评估项目的收益性、风险性和流动性，选择符合企业战略且能创造价值的项目。
The decision-making objective is to select projects that align with the enterprise's strategy and can create value by assessing the profitability, risk, and liquidity of the projects.
2.投资分类
2.Investment Classification
按投资性质
Classified by investment nature:
经营性投资：用于维持或扩大生产经营（如购置设备、扩建厂房）。
Operating investments are used to maintain or expand production and business operations, such as purchasing equipment or expanding factories.
金融性投资：用于购买股票、债券等金融资产以获取投资收益。
Financial investments involve purchasing financial assets like stocks and bonds to gain investment profits.
按项目间关系
Classified by project relationship:
独立项目：各项目互不影响，可单独决策（如新建一条生产线）。
Independent projects do not affect each other and can be decided separately, such as constructing a new production line.
互斥项目：多个项目只能选其一（如选择A设备或B设备）。
Mutually exclusive projects mean that only one of several projects can be chosen, such as selecting either equipment A or B.
3.按风险程度
3.Classified by risk degree:
Certain investments have predictable future returns, such as investing in government bonds.
风险性投资：未来收益存在不确定性（如新产品研发）。
Risky investments have uncertain future returns, such as new product development.
二、投资决策的核心原则
II. Core Principles of Investment Decision - Making
1.货币时间价值原则
1.The principle of the time value of money:
不同时间点的现金流量需按折现率（如资本成本、期望收益率）换算为同一时点价值（现值或终值），以实现公平比较。
Cash flows at different time points should be discounted to the same time point value (present or Terminal value) using the discount rate (e.g., cost of capital or expected rate of return) to ensure fair comparison.
例如：今日的100元比一年后的100元更值钱，因资金可用于投资增值。
For example, 100 yuan today is worth more than 100 yuan a year later because funds can be invested to increase in value.
2.现金流量原则
2.The principle of cash flow:
以实际现金流量（而非会计利润）作为决策依据，关注项目的增量现金流量（即项目实施前后的现金流量差额）。
Decision-making should be based on actual cash flows rather than Accounting profits, focusing on the incremental cash flows of the project (i.e., the difference in cash flows before and after project implementation).
沉没成本（已发生且无法收回的成本，如前期市场调研费用）：决策时应忽略。
Sunk costs (costs already incurred and unrecoverable, such as pre-market research expenses) should be ignored in decision-making.
机会成本（因选择本项目而放弃的其他收益，如闲置厂房若出租的租金）：需纳入分析。
Opportunity costs (other profits foregone due to selecting this project, such as rent from idle factories if leased out) should be included in the analysis.
3.风险与收益权衡原则
3.The principle of risk-return trade-off:
高风险项目需匹配更高的预期收益，通过风险调整折现率或概率分析量化风险对收益的影响。
High-risk projects require higher expected returns. The impact of risk on returns can be quantified using risk-adjusted discount rates or probability analysis.
例如：高科技项目风险高，需设定更高的最低收益率（如必要报酬率）。
For example, high-tech projects with high risks require a higher minimum rate of return, such as the required rate of return.
可比性原则
The principle of comparability:
对不同项目的现金流量需统一计算口径（如均采用税后现金流量）和时间范围（如项目生命周期），确保决策基准一致。
The cash flows of different projects should be calculated using the same口径 (e.g., after-tax cash flows) and time frame (e.g., project life cycle) to ensure consistent decision-making criteria.
三、投资决策的常用方法
III. Common Investment Decision - Making Methods
非折现方法（不考虑时间价值）
Non - Discounting Methods (Ignoring Time Value of Money)
1. 静态投资回收期法
1.Static investment payback period method:
Defined as the time required to recover the initial investment, with the formula:
Payback period = Initial investment / Annual average net cash flow.
优点：计算简单，反映项目流动性。
Advantage: Simple calculation and reflects project liquidity.
缺点：忽略时间价值和回收期后的现金流量，适用于短期决策或风险较高的项目。
Disadvantage: Ignores the time value of money and cash flows after the payback period. It's suitable for short-term decisions or high-risk projects.
2. 会计收益率法（ARR）
2. Accounting rate of return method (ARR):
定义：项目平均会计利润与平均投资额的比率，公式为：
Defined as the ratio of average accounting profit to average investment, with the formula:
ARR = (Annual average net profit / Average investment) × 100%.
优缺点：
Its advantages and disadvantages are as follows:
优点：数据易获取，反映会计盈利水平。
Advantage: Data is easily obtainable and reflects accounting profitability.
缺点：依赖会计数据，未考虑现金流量和时间价值。
Disadvantage: Depends on accounting data and ignores cash flows and the time value of money.
折现方法（考虑时间价值）
Discounting Methods (Considering Time Value of Money)
1. 净现值法（NPV）
Net present value method (NPV):
Defined as the difference between the present value of future net cash flows and the present value of the initial investment, with the formula:
NPV = ∑ (NCF_t / (1 + k)^t) - C₀, where NCF_t is the net cash flow in year t, k is the discount rate, and C₀ is the initial investment.
决策规则：
Decision rules:
NPV＞0：项目可行（预期收益超过资本成本）。
If NPV > 0, the project is feasible (expected returns exceed the cost of capital).
NPV＜0：项目不可行。
If NPV
互斥项目：选择NPV最大的方案。
For mutually exclusive projects, select the option with the largest NPV.
优点：
Its advantage is:
全面考虑时间价值和现金流量，直接反映项目对企业价值的增值。
It comprehensively considers the time value of money and cash flows and directly reflects the project's value-adding to the enterprise.
2. 内部收益率法（IRR）
2. Internal rate of return method (IRR):
定义：使项目净现值为零时的折现率（即项目本身的预期收益率）。
Defined as the discount rate that makes the project's net present value zero, which is the project's expected rate of return.
决策规则：
Decision rules:
IRR＞资本成本：项目可行。
If IRR > cost of capital, the project is feasible.
IRR＜资本成本：项目不可行。
If IRR
互斥项目：需结合NPV判断（可能因现金流模式不同出现矛盾）。
For mutually exclusive projects, judgments should be made in combination with NPV (conflicts may arise due to different cash flow patterns).
优点：
Its advantage is:
反映项目“内在”收益水平，便于与行业基准收益率比较。
It reflects the project's "intrinsic" return level, making it convenient to compare with the industry's benchmark return rate.
3. 获利指数法（PI）
3.Profitability index method (PI):
定义：未来现金净流量现值与初始投资额现值的比率，公式为：
Defined as the ratio of the present value of future net cash flows to the present value of the initial investment, with the formula:
PI = [∑ (NCF_t / (1 + k)^t)] / C₀.
决策规则：
Decision rules:
PI＞1：项目可行（现值收益超过成本）。
If PI > 1, the project is feasible (present value of returns exceeds costs).
PI＜1：项目不可行。
If PI
四、投资决策的关键步骤
IV. Key Steps in Investment Decision - Making
1. 项目提出
1.Project proposal:
基于企业战略（如扩张、创新）或市场机会（如政策红利、技术突破）提出投资项目。
Projects are proposed based on enterprise strategy (e.g., expansion, innovation) or market opportunities (e.g., policy dividends, technological breakthroughs).
2. 现金流估算
2.Cash flow estimation:
初始期：现金流出（如设备购置、安装成本、垫支营运资金）。
Initial stage: Cash outflows (e.g., equipment purchase, installation costs,垫支营运资金).
经营期：现金流入（销售收入） - 现金流出（付现成本、税费）= 营业现金净流量。
Operating stage: Cash inflows (sales revenue) - Cash outflows (cash costs, taxes) = Operating net cash flow.
终结期：现金流入（残值回收、营运资金收回）。
Terminal stage: Cash inflows (salvage value recovery, recovery of working capital).
3. 风险评估
3.Risk assessment:
敏感性分析：测算单一变量（如销量、价格）变动对项目NPV的影响程度。
Sensitivity analysis: Measures the impact of changes in a single variable (e.g., sales volume, price) on the project's NPV.
情景分析：设定不同情景（如乐观、中性、悲观），评估项目在各情景下的可行性。
Scenario analysis: Sets different scenarios (e.g., optimistic, neutral, pessimistic) to assess the project's feasibility in each.
概率分析：对不确定因素（如市场需求）设定概率分布，计算期望NPV和标准差。
Probability analysis: Assigns probability distributions to uncertain factors (e.g., market demand) and calculates the expected NPV and standard deviation.
4. 方案选择与决策
4.Scheme selection and decision-making:
独立项目：满足NPV＞0或IRR＞资本成本即可接受。
For independent projects: Acceptable if NPV > 0 or IRR > cost of capital.
互斥项目：优先选择NPV最大的方案（若NPV与IRR冲突，以NPV为准，因NPV直接反映价值增值）。
For mutually exclusive projects: Select the option with the largest NPV. If there's a conflict between NPV and IRR, NPV takes precedence as it directly reflects value addition.
5. 实施与监控
5.Implementation and monitoring:
跟踪项目进展，对比实际现金流与预测值，及时调整或终止不可行项目。
Track project progress, compare actual cash flows with forecasts, and adjust or terminate infeasible projects in a timely manner.五、投资决策的现实应用与挑战
V. Practical Applications and Challenges of Investment Decision - Making
常见应用场景
Common Application Scenarios
固定资产投资：如厂房设备更新、生产线扩建，需通过NPV或IRR评估经济性。
Fixed asset investment: Such as factory and equipment upgrades, production line expansion. The economic viability is assessed using NPV or IRR.
研发投资：因收益不确定性高，常结合实物期权（如延迟投资、扩大投资的权利）进行动态决策。
R & D investment: Due to high uncertainty in returns, it's often combined with real options (such as delayed investment, the right to expand investment) for dynamic decision-making.
并购投资：通过现金流折现（DCF）评估目标企业价值，判断收购价格是否合理。
Mergers and acquisitions investment: Assess the target enterprise value using discounted cash flow (DCF) to determine if the acquisition price is reasonable.
主要挑战
Major Challenges
现金流预测误差：市场环境、技术变革等因素可能导致实际现金流与预测偏离。
Cash flow forecast errors: Factors such as market environment and technological changes may cause actual cash flows to deviate from forecasts.
折现率设定争议：如何合理确定风险调整后的折现率（如采用资本资产定价模型CAPM）。
Discount rate determination disputes: How to reasonably determine the risk-adjusted discount rate (e.g., using the Capital Asset Pricing Model, CAPM).
多目标平衡：部分项目（如环保投资）需兼顾社会效益，难以完全用财务指标衡量。
Multi-objective balancing: Some projects (such as environmental investments) need to consider social benefits and cannot be fully measured by financial indicators.
通过系统化的投资决策原理与方法，企业可降低投资盲目性，提高资源配置效率，为长期发展奠定基础。
By applying systematic investment decision-making principles and methods, enterprises can reduce investment blindness, enhance resource allocation efficiency, and lay a foundation for long-term development.
