Chapter 14Risk and Managerial (Real) Options in Capital Budgeting
Learning Objectives After studying Chapter 14, you should be able to: • Define the "riskiness" of a capital investment project. • Understand how cash-flow riskiness for a particular period is measured, including the concepts of expected value, standard deviation, and coefficient of variation. • Describe methods for assessing total project risk, including a probability approach and a simulation approach. • Judge projects with respect to their contribution to total firm risk (a firm-portfolio approach). • Understand how the presence of managerial (real) options enhances the worth of an investment project. • List, discuss, and value different types of managerial (real) options.
Topics • The Problem of Project Risk • Total Project Risk • Contribution to Total Firm Risk: Firm-Portfolio Approach • Managerial (Real) Options

Summary of Proposal B Standard deviation = SQRT (1,200,000) = $1,095 Expected cash flow = $4,000 Coefficient of Variation (CV) = $1,095 / $4,000 = 0.27
Comparison of Proposal A & B The standard deviation of B > A($1,095 > $548), so “B” is morerisky than “A”. The coefficient of variation of B > A (0.27 < 0.14), so “B” has higherrelative risk than “A”.
Projects have risk that may change from period to period. Projects are more likely to have continuous, rather than discrete distributions. Total Project Risk Cash Flow ($) 123 Year
A graphic or tabular approach for organizing the possible cash-flow streams generated by an investment. The presentation resembles the branches of a tree. Each complete branch represents one possible cash-flow sequence. Probability Tree Approach
Basket Wonders is examining a project that will have an initial cost today of $240. Uncertainty surrounding the first year cash flows creates three possible cash-flow scenarios in Year 1. Probability Tree Approach -$240
Node 1: 25% chance of a $500cash-flow. Node 2: 50% chance of a $200cash-flow. Node 3: 25% chance of a -$100cash-flow. Probability Tree Approach (.25) $500 1 (.50) $200 -$240 2 (.25) -$100 3 Year 1
Each node in Year 2 represents a branch of our probability tree. The probabilities are said to be conditional probabilities.

The probability tree accounts for the distribution of cash flows. Therefore, discount all cash flows at only the risk-free rate of return. The NPV for branch iof the probability tree for two years of cash flows is Project NPV Based on Probability Tree z NPV = S (NPVi)(Pi) i = 1 CF1 CF2 NPVi = + (1 + Rf)1 (1 + Rf )2 - ICO

An approach that allows us to test the possible results of an investment proposal before it is accepted. Testing is based on a model coupled with probabilistic information. Simulation Approach
Market analysis Market size, selling price, market growth rate, and market share Investment cost analysis Investment required, useful life of facilities, and residual value Operating and fixed costs Operating costs and fixed costs Simulation Approach Factors we might consider in a model:
Each variable is assigned an appropriate probability distribution. The distribution for the selling price of baskets created by Basket Wonders might look like: $20 $25 $30 $35$40$45$50 .02.08 .22 .36 .22 .08.02 The resulting proposal value is dependent on the distribution and interaction of EVERY variable. Simulation Approach
Each proposal will generate aninternal rate of return. The process of generating many, many simulations results in a large set of internal rates of return. The distribution might look like the following: Simulation Approach PROBABILITY OF OCCURRENCE INTERNAL RATE OF RETURN (%)

Management flexibility to make future decisions that affect a project’s expected cash flows, life, or future acceptance. Project Worth = NPV + Option(s) Value Managerial (Real) Options
Expand (or contract) Allows the firm to expand (contract) production if conditions become favorable (unfavorable). Abandon Allows the project to be terminated early. Postpone Allows the firm to delay undertaking a project (reduces uncertainty via new information). Managerial (Real) Options
