Explanation / Answer

There can be various intangible benefits of an Investment proposal. Some of them are:

Increased customer loyalty: A project can very well be in a direction of increasing customer loyalty like doing activities like CSR.

Increased employee motivation: An Invested can be proposed to increase the employee motivation.

Increased quality: An investment proposal can be made to enhance the quality.

These intangible benefits complicate the capital budgeting decisions because they are intangible in nature and hence very difficult to be quantified, so including them in the financial benefits analysis of an investment becomes complex and very difficult and hence they are preferred to be avoided.

It might happen that company may reject a valuable project, if it doesn't consider intangible benefits because a project that doesn't have high intangible benefits to support its acceptance may very well have very high intangible benefits to support the organisation goals and benefit it.
