Investment and financialdecisions Investment and financialdecision – importantconcepts in the framework of corporatefinance Corporate finance meansfinancing of a firm—not simply an asset, not simply an individual,but that unique combination of assets and individuals that constitutesa firm.(L. Zingales, In Search of New Foundations, Journal of Finance, The Journal of Finance, no. 4, August 2000) Jacek Mizerka Decyzje inwestycyjne i finansowe

Twoapproaches to Corporate Finance • Normativeapproach – affirmshowthingsshould be and whichactionsaregood and whicharewrongfromthe point of view of thedecisioncriterion. • Descriptive, "disinterested" approach – approach which aims primarily at gathering knowledge (i.e. descriptions and explanations) about financial phenomenabut does not wish to improvedecisionmaking.

Neoclassical Finance • Predecessor – old finance theorybefore 1958 – inthistheory capital market does not exist; focus on accounting – decisionsmade on thebasis of accountingstatements. • Mainparadigm:capital market isworkingsmoothly. • Decisioncriterion: value of a firm; thanks to thegoodfunctioning of the capital market, thevalue of a company can be deriveddirectlyfromthecashsurplus • Importance of thefirm’svaluecriterion – Fisher’sseparationtheorem Jacek Mizerka Decyzje inwestycyjne i finansowe

Neoclassical Finance cont. • What is of particular importance inFisher’s separation theorem: • The wishes or preferences ofowners can be separated from investment decisions and delegated tomanagers. • Whenmaking a decisionconcerning a projectwhichgenerates a positive net presentvalue (NPV), the manager maximizestheowners’ utilityindependently of their own preferences. • Anincreaseinthefirm’svalue (determined by cashflows) = anincreaseinowners’ wealth • It is possible to separate a firm's investment decisions from the firm's financial decisions.

Neoclassical Finance cont. • Mainconcepts, cont. Valuationmethods - remarks Thevalue of a company isdriven by itsability to produceeconomicbenefits for owners and creditors The income approach, generally speaking, is based onfuture expected benefitsdiscounted at the current moment A neccesaryconditionfor applying the income approach - the company should be able to generate benefits to creditors and owners Thebenefitsaremeasured by cashflows Additionalremarks- see P.

Neoclassical Finance cont. • Mainconcepts, cont. Determinants of an option value • Value of an underlyingasset:if, the right to buy at a fixed price(calls) will become more valuable, and the right to sell at a fixed price (puts) willbecome less valuable. • Variance in that value:if, both calls and puts will becomemore valuable because all options have a limited downside and depend upon pricevolatility for upside. • Expected dividends on the asset, which are likely to reduce the price appreciationcomponent of the asset, reduce the value of calls and increase the value of puts. • Strike Price of Options: if , the right to buy (sell) at a fixed price becomes less (more)valuable. • Life of the Option; both calls and puts benefit from a longer life. • Interest Rates; if rates, the right to buy (sell) at a fixed price in the future becomes more (less) valuable.

Neoclassical Finance cont. • Mainconcepts, cont. Main differences between DCF methods and option valuation models • DCF methodswhich are based on the expectedvalues of cash flowsinsomecases do not adequatelycaptureuncertainty. Theincreaseinrisk (volatility) isregarded as a threat risk (σ) ↑ => discountrate ↑ => V (on thebasis of DCF) ↓ As part of theoptionapproach, theincreaseinriskistreated as an opportunity(chance) risk (σ) ↑ => value of an option ↑ • The essence of options is that they include flexibility in decision makingwhilethe DCF methods do not takeflexibilityintoaccount Jacek Mizerka Decyzje inwestycyjne i finansowe

Neoclassical Finance cont. • Mainconcepts, cont. Real optionsapproach Disadvantages of NPV • NPV is based on the values of expected cash flows.NPV does not sufficiently take uncertaintyinto account. • NPV does not allowusto operatewith time;the set of possible alternativesislimited to: yesorno. • NPV does not sufficiently take into account the fact that investments are at least partially irreversible. There is an analogy between investment projects and financial options Investment projectscan be identified and valued as options Jacek Mizerka Decyzje inwestycyjne i finansowe

Moving away from complete market assumptions, cont. Equity as a calloption Stockholders and bondholders have different objective functions, whichcan lead to agency problems, where stockholders can expropriatewealth from bondholders. The conflict can manifest itself in a number of ways - for instance,stockholders have an incentive to take riskier projects thanbondholders do, and to pay more out in dividends than bondholderswould like them to. This conflict between bondholders and stockholders can be illustrated dramatically using the option pricing model.Since equity is a call option on the value of the firm, an increase in thevariance in the firm’s value, other things remaining equal, will lead to anincrease in the value of equity. It is therefore conceivable that stockholders can take risky projects withnegative net present values, which, while making them better off, maymake the bondholders and the firm less valuable.

Equity=option’s value 0 Value of debt = strike price Value of firm as a whole = value of an underlying asset Moving away from a complete market assumptions, cont. Total value of firm’sequity = option’s total value Intrinsic value of firm’s equity = intrinsic option’s value Jacek Mizerka Decyzje inwestycyjne i finansowe
