Describe the internal and external financial methods used to determine a project’s risk integrated into a Capital Budgeting analysis.

Include the following requirements in the PowerPoint and video:

Title slide, which includes a link to your video. Follow the Reading and Presentations directions linked in Assignment Resources to record a video and add a link. 

Use concise bullet points on the slide and then use the Speaker Notes section to add citations and details for each slide (this becomes your video "speech").
