    Hi,

    I wanted to know which layout was correct when doing investment appraisal.

    Should you be entering Year 0 and having the investment on there as e.g -500000, or starting the investment appraisal at Year 1 and deduct 500000 at the end of the NPV?

    Thanks

    It makes absolutely no difference at all!

    There are no marks for layout.

    All that matters is that it is clear to the marker what you are doing.
