The purpose of this paper is to analyse the advantages of the adjusted present value – as a new method of valuing companies and projects - and compare them with the already famous net present value. It is also aimed to update the Romanian literature with the latest developments on the subject. It concludes that the new adjusted present value is a useful valuation tool mostly when valuing foreign direct investments and highly leveraged projects. Even so, it is better used as an alternative and refining valuation method to old methods, as it is highly vulnerable to sensitive variables used in its computation.
