Capital Budgeting & Risk


Capital

Budgeting:

Process used to make


decisions concerning investments in the long term
assets of the firm.
Risk: The potential that a chosen action or activity
will lead to a loss

Factors Influencing Risk:

General Economic conditions


Industry factors
Company factors

Statistical Techniques for Risk Analysis

Probability Defined:
- Likelihood of an event to occur
- Objective -> Large no. of observations , Subjective -> state of belief
Risk and Uncertainty:
- Risk -> Probability distribution of cash flow known
- Uncertainty -> Probability distribution of cash flow is not available
Expected Net Present Value:
- ENPV = Sum of present values of expected net cash flows
Variance or Standard Deviation
- Expected cash flow of each of the possible cash flows
Coefficient of Variation
- SD(Same) & EV( Different), SD(Different) & EV(same) , SD(Different)
& EV(Different)

Conventional Techniques for Risk Analysis

Payback:
- An attempt to allow for risk in capital budgeting
decision rather than a method to measure profitability
Certainty equivalent:
- t= Certain net cash flow / Risky net cash flow
Risk-adjusted discount rate:
- K= Risk free rate + Risk premium
- Difference between market rate of return and risk
free rate multiplied by the beta of the project is risk
premium

Sensitivity Analysis

Identification of variables which influence on the


projects NPV
Definition of the underlying relationship between
the variables
Analysis of the impact of the variables on the
projects NPV

Scenario Analysis

Variables are independent of each other


Variables may be inter related and may change in
combination

Disadvantages:
Does not consider interaction between the
variables
Does not reflect on the probability of the change in
the variables

Simulation Analysis

Interactions among variables


Probabilities of the change in the variables

Disadvantages:
Quite complex
Depends on previous values
Identification of all possible relations and
probability distribution is a difficult task

Decision Tree Approach

Define Investment
Identify decision alternatives
Draw a decision tree
Analyse data
