===Capital budgeting ratios===&lt;br /&gt;
{{Main|Capital budgeting}}&lt;br /&gt;
In addition to assisting management and owners in diagnosing the financial health of their company, ratios can also help managers make decisions about investments or projects that the company is considering to take, such as acquisitions, or expansion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Many formal methods are used in capital budgeting, including the techniques such as&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Net present value]]&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Profitability index]]&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Internal rate of return]]&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Modified internal rate of return]]&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Equivalent annual cost|Equivalent annuity]]&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
