Q$2.$ Analyzing the Economics of Project Appraisal in Industrial Investments

The objective of this assignment is to explore the economic principles and methodologies involved in project appraisal within industrial contexts. Students will critically analyze the factors influencing investment decisions, assess the financial viability of industrial projects, and evaluate the potential risks and benefits associated with different appraisal techniques such as Net Present Value $($NPV$),$ Internal Rate of Return $($IRR$),$ and Payback Period.

You may choose a project relevant to your organization and conduct a detailed case study analysis. Evaluate the project's financial feasibility using appropriate appraisal techniques, considering factors such as initial investment costs, expected cash flows, and discount rates. Also, discuss macroeconomic factors, industry$-$specific considerations, and regulatory frameworks that impact investment feasibility if any.
