Budgeting:
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)
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
Scenario Analysis
Disadvantages:
Does not consider interaction between the
variables
Does not reflect on the probability of the change in
the variables
Simulation Analysis
Disadvantages:
Quite complex
Depends on previous values
Identification of all possible relations and
probability distribution is a difficult task
Define Investment
Identify decision alternatives
Draw a decision tree
Analyse data
