Accurately evaluating the technical, economic and social risk of a new investment project is critical. Common potential risks include errors in evaluating opportunity growth; errors in data-gathering; misevaluating the priority of the economic objective to be achieved, mis-projections of project scope (otherwise known as 'project creep'); and radical and unexpected changes in the economic environment. Evaluating risk is a multi-faceted process. It entails an understanding of the physical, functional, and staff required to realize the project; assessing vulnerabilities and possible remedies; risk adjustment; prioritizing on organizational risk hierarchies; making risk comparisons within the organization and globally; and appropriate use of risk matrices.

Article 4: Valuation...

Journal of Marketing, 72 (4): 105-122.

Many factors can be incorporated into the calculation of the value of stock and stock portfolios. According to the authors, customer-related metrics are often ignored in the valuation process. Analyzing customer satisfaction when evaluating the potential for stock returns has been shown to improve the accuracy of predicting a company's cash flow, long-term stock performance, and potential for shareholder value.

Summary

All of these articles bear witness to the idea that evaluating company performance and value cannot be based upon a single figure, or even a single method of analysis. Cash flow, risk, and even customer satisfaction must all be taken into account when making investment decisions.

Response Yes, technology generates problems, and it is shrewd and apt to point out that for every net gain to certain members of society via technology there is a net loss.
