Executive Summary:
The assessment has directly evaluated the process, which can be used by the technology
company for effectively improving their financial performance and generate high level of
income. The relevant analysis has indicated that overall financial performance of the company
can be improved for utilising relevant selection, cost management, funding, winding up and
implementation.
Part A:
i) Identifying the process where the technology company can use project selection:
The analysis directly identifies the process where technology companies for ensuring
high level of returns from operations can conduct adequate project selection. From the analysis,
it can also be indicated that with the help of investment calculations such as IRR (internal rate of
return), NPV (net present value) and payback period is used by organizations in technological
sector to detect the financial capability of the project. With the help of Payback period, investors
are able to understand the minimum time that will be taken by the project to return the initial
investment to the organization. Moreover, net present value directly utilizes the future cash flows
on the basis of time value of money and determines the present value of the inflows and profit
made by the project. In addition, with the help of internal rate of return managers able to
determine the level of income percentage that would be generated by the project over the period
of time. Thus, Apple Inc. can use the overall investment-appraisal calculation advancements in

their project selection process, as it will help in detecting the most viable investment for the
organization (Nguyen et al. 2018).
ii) Evaluating the different level so of cost management measures that can be used for
improving the efficiency of the projects:
The cost management measures are considered to be one of the major techniques that are
used by organizations in the technological factors for improving the efficiency conditions of their
projects. From the relevant evaluation, it will be identified that with the help of time
management, budget planning, and time tracking technological companies are able to improve
the efficiency of the project by reducing the level of expenses that is incurred in the process of
completing the investment proposal. With the help of budgeting, organizations are able to
analyze the future cash flows, which directly link towards income and expenses. In the similar
process, the time tracking method would eventually allow the organization to determine the level
of efficiency that is maintained by the workforce deployed to commence the project. Moreover,
the time management analysis the different level of activities and determines the viable
opportunity that can be used for enhancing current productivity by reducing the time consumed
in completion of an activity. Hence, Apple Inc. can utilize the above cost management methods
for adequately improving the current efficiency and operations of the project, which can in turn
increase profits from the investment.
iii) Analyzing the different level of funding is available to technology companies:
The companies falling under Technology industry can use the different level of funding
such as debt financing and equity fund, which can eventually help them to complete the projects.
