*Three of journal articles*
A writer should use these journal articles to answer to this case study.
See for details on two additional articles {Litzenberger&joy(1975);Ang(1986)} identifying and discussing key considerations in the context of the capital expenditure approval process in large organisations.
The collection of three articles provides a source for issues in contemporary capital budgenting practices and systems in large organisations.Other good sources include journal listings and the financial press.
This article is a study of the institutional aspects of capital budgeting. It is shown that the process of decentralized capital budgeting suffers from several agency problems, such as over-optimistic forecasts, adverse selection, adverse incentives, recurring needs, myopic bias, measuring problems and mobility for managers. Internal rationing at the divisional level is found to be an effective complement to managerial compensation schemes in solving these agency problems.
