Abstract

The objective of the present study is to analyze capital budgeting practices in supermarket companies in the State of Santa Catarina - Brazil. The study was carried out through the application of questionnaires in 19 large supermarkets in Santa Catarina. The results show that companies adopt different methods for evaluating investments, but often use the Net Present Value and the Accounting Return Rate and Scenario Analysis. It is concluded that managers usually use different methodologies in the preparation of capital budget, but still need adequate information systems to manage the budget.
