  1. L29: Sensitivity and Breakeven Analysis ECON 320 Engineering Economics Mahmut Ali GOKCE Industrial Systems Engineering Computer Sciences

  2. Chapter 10Handling Project Uncertainty • Origin of Project Risk • Methods of Describing Project Risk • Probability Concepts for Investment Decisions • Risk-Adjusted Discount Rate Approach

  3. Origins of Project Risk • Risk: the potential for loss • Project Risk: variability in a project’s NPW • Risk Analysis: The assignment of probabilities to the various outcomes of an investment project

  4. Methods of Describing Project Risk • Sensitivity Analysis: a means of identifying the project variables which, when varied, have the greatest effect on project acceptability. • What might have greatest effect on NPW, if changed? • Break-Even Analysis: a means of identifying the value of a particular project variable that causes the project to exactly break even. • Scenario Analysis: a means of comparing a “base case” to one or more additional scenarios, such as best and worst case, to identify the extreme and most likely project outcomes.

  5. Sensitivity Analysis – Example 10.1Should we or should we not? • Transmission-Housing Project by Boston Metal Company • New investment = $125,000 • Number of units = 2,000 units • Unit Price = $50 per unit • Unit variable cost = $15 per unit • Fixed cost = $10,000/Yr • Project Life = 5 years • Salvage value = $40,000 at the end of project life. • Income tax rate = 40% • MARR = 15% • Depreciation 7-year MACRS (Check out % depreciation from table 8.5) for a 5 year project. • Develop a table for after-tax cash flow table! Then we will assess the situation under different scenarios

  6. Example 10.1 - After-tax Cash Flow for BMC’s Transmission-Housings Project – “Base Case”

  7. (Example 10.1, Continued)

  8. Example 10.2 - Sensitivity Analysis for Five Key Input Variables Try to understand what will happen if estimates on unit prices, demand, variable and fixed cost, salvage value change? Base

  9. Sensitivity graph – BMC’s transmission-housings project $100,000 90,000 Unit Price 80,000 70,000 Demand 60,000 50,000 Salvage value 40,000 Fixed cost Base 30,000 Variable cost 20,000 10,000 0 -10,000 -15% -10% -5% -20% 0% 5% 10% 15% 20%

  10. Example 10.2 - Sensitivity Analysis for Mutually Exclusive Alternatives

  11. Capital (Ownership) Cost • Electrical power: CR(10%) = ($30,000 - $3,000)(A/P, 10%, 7) + (0.10)$3,000 = $5,845 • LPG: CR(10%) = ($21,000- $2,000)(A/P, 10%, 7) + (0.10)$2,000 = $4,103 • Gasoline: CR(10%) = ($20,000-$2,000)(A/P, 10%, 7) + (0.10) $2,000 = $3,897 • Diesel fuel: CR(10%) = ($25,000 -$2,200)(A/P, 10%, 7) +(0.10) $2,200 = $4,903

  12. REMEMBER L 17 FROM CHAPTER 6 ? Annual Equivalent Cost • When only costs are involved, the AE method is called the annual equivalent cost. • Revenues must cover two kinds of costs: Operating costs and capital costs. Capital costs + Annual Equivalent Costs Operating costs

  13. REMEMBER L 17 FROM CHAPTER 6 ?Capital (Ownership) Costs • Def: Owning an equipment is associated with two transactions—(1) its initial cost (I) and (2) its salvage value (S). • Capital costs: Taking these items into consideration, we calculate the capital costs as: S 0 N I 0 1 2 3 N CR(i)

  14. Annual O&M Cost Let M be number of shifts per year • Electrical power: $500 + (1.60 + 5)M = $500 + 6.6M • LPG: $1,000 + (12 + 6)M = $1,000 + 18M • Gasoline: $800 + (13.2 + 7)M = $800 + 20.20M • Diesel fuel: $1,500 + (7.7 + 9)M = $1,500 + 16.7M

  15. Annual Equivalent Cost • Electrical power: AE(10%) = 6,345 + 6.6M • LPG: AE(10%) = 5,103 + 18M • Gasoline: AE(10%) = 4,697 + 20.20M • Diesel fuel: AE(10%) = 6,403 + 16.7M

  16. Break-Even Analysis • Excel using a Goal Seek function • Analytical Approach

  17. NPW Breakeven Value Demand Excel Using a Goal Seek Function Can we find demand level for which NPW is 0?

  20.  PW of cash inflows PW(15%)Inflow= (PW of after-tax net revenue) + (PW of net salvage value) + (PW of tax savings from depreciation = 30X(P/A, 15%, 5) + $37,389(P/F, 15%, 5) + $7,145(P/F, 15%,1) + $12,245(P/F, 15%, 2) + $8,745(P/F, 15%, 3) + $6,245(P/F, 15%, 4) + $2,230(P/F, 15%,5) = 30X(P/A, 15%, 5) + $44,490 = 100.5650X + $44,490

  21.  PW of cash outflows: PW(15%)Outflow = (PW of capital expenditure_ + (PW) of after-tax expenses = $125,000 + (9X+$6,000)(P/A, 15%, 5) = 30.1694X + $145,113  The NPW: PW (15%) = 100.5650X + $44,490 - (30.1694X + $145,113) =70.3956X - $100,623.  Breakeven volume: PW (15%) = 70.3956X - $100,623 = 0 Xb =1,430 units.
