In addition, we sought to identify which characteristics of the company and its general manager influence the use of these techniques. For this, a survey was elaborated and applied to 126 medium-sized companies in the department of Piura (Peru). Based on this, it was found that a large part of the sample uses at least one technique where cash flows are discounted, which is supported by the theory; therefore, it is evident that the gap between theory and practice is not very wide. %K Mediana empresa %K Presupuesto de capital %K Tasa de descuento %K Flujo de caja %K Perú %~ GOEDOC, SUB GOETTINGEN
