Points to discuss
Analysis of Risk- sources, measures and perspectives on
risk,
Simple estimation of risk –
• Sensitivity analysis
• Scenario analysis,
• Simulation and
• Decision tree analysis
Analysis of Risk- sources, measures
and perspectives on risk
• Risk Meaning - Risk is the exposure a company or
organization has to factor(s) that will lower its profits
or lead it to fail. Anything that threatens a company's
ability to achieve its financial goals is considered
a risk.
• Risk in capital budgeting means uncertainty in terms
of cash inflows since the project life is long and it
involved a huge investment.
Sources of risk
• Corporate risk e.g. economic downturn, or bankruptcy
• International risk (including currency risk)
• Industry-specific risk eg Airlines during COVID 19
• Market risk.- SVB bankruptcy
• Project-specific risk - cost scope timing
Measures of risk
We calculate the Std. Dev and coefficient of variance
based on the returns and probability….
Perspectives on Risk
• Systematic risk –It is the risk related to the entire
market or market segment.
• Unsystematic risk – It is controllable risk
Four Ways to do Project Analysis
• Sensitivity Analysis
• Decision Trees
• Simulation Method
• Scenario analysis,
Decision Tree
What’s the
difference?
Each shows a manager different aspects of the decision he/she
faces:
• Sensitivity Analysis shows her how much each variable
affects the NPV..
• Decision Trees are visual representations of the average
outcome.
• Simulation is used to analyze real projects. The goal of the
simulation is to show the user the different possible outcomes
of his decisions, along with the probability that each outcome
will occur.
• Scenario Analysis is designed to derive reasoned
assessments of the likelihood and impact of plausible
operational losses from business and risk management
experts.
Sensitivity Analysis
• Set up an Excel spreadsheet that
will calculate your projects NPV
• Individually change your
assumptions to see how the NPV
changes with respect to different
variables
• Helps to determine how much to
spend on additional information
Jalopy Motor’s
Example
Suppose that you forecast the
following for an electric
scooter project:
• Market Size of .9 million (worst case)– 1.1 million (best
case) customers
• Market Share of between 4% (wc)and 16% (bc) after the
first year
• Unit price between $3,500 (wc) and $3,800 (bc)
• Unit cost (variable) between $3,600 (wc) and $2,750 (bc)
• Fixed costs between $40 (wc) and 20 million (bc).
Jalopy Example (cont.)
Pessimistic Expected Optimistic
Market Size 900,000 1,000,000 1,100,000
Market Share 4% 10% 16%
Unit Price 3,500
$ 3,750
$ 3,800
$
Unit Cost (Variable) 3,600
$ 3,000
$ 2,750
$
Fixed Costs 40,000,000
$ 30,000,000
$ 20,000,000
$
Discount Rate 10%
Original Investment 150,000,000
Revenue: 375,000,000
$
Variable Cost 300,000,000
$
Fixed Cost: 30,000,000
$
Depreciation 15,000,000
$
Tax: 15,000,000
$
Net Profit (Pretax Profit - Tax): 15,000,000
$
Net Cash Flow (net profit + Depcn) 30,000,000
$
10 Year NPV $34,337,013.17
Changing each variable individually yields the following NPV:
Pessimistic Expected Optimistic
Market Size 11,000,000 34,337,013 57,000,000
Market Share (104,000,000) 34,337,013 173,000,000
Unit Price (42,000,000) 34,337,013 50,000,000
Unit Cost (Variable) (150,000,000) 34,337,013 111,000,000
Fixed Costs 4,000,000 34,337,013 65,000,000
Explanations
• NPV is calculated by subtracting the initial investment
from the sum of yearly $30M net cash flow.
– NPV = - 150 + 30 [1 – (1.1)10 / .1] = $34.3
• Net Cash Flow is defined as net profit plus the tax
savings you get from depreciation
Decision Tree Analysis
• A Visual Representation of
Choices, Consequences,
Probabilities, and Opportunities.
• A Way of Breaking Down
Complicated Situations Down to
Easier-to-Understand Scenarios.
Decision Tree
Easy Example
• A Decision Tree with two choices.
Go to Graduate School to
get my MBA.
Go to Work “in the Real
World”
Notation Used in Decision Trees
• A box is used to show a choice that the
manager has to make.
• A circle is used to show that a probability
outcome will occur.
• Lines connect outcomes to their choice
or probability outcome.
Easy Example - Revisited
What are some of the costs we should take
into account when deciding whether or not to
go to business school?
• Tuition and Fees
• Rent / Food / etc.
• Opportunity cost of salary
• Anticipated future earnings
Simple Decision Tree Model
Go to Graduate
School to get my
MBA.
Go to Work “in the
Real World”
2 Years of tuition: $55,000, 2 years of
Room/Board: $20,000; 2 years of Opportunity
Cost of Salary = $100,000
Total = $175,000.
PLUS  Anticipated 5 year salary after
Business School = $600,000.
NPV (business school) = $600,000 - $175,000 =
$425,000
First two year salary = $100,000 (from above),
minus expenses of $20,000.
Final five year salary = $330,000
NPV (no b-school) = $410,000
Is this a realistic model?
What is missing? Go to Business School
The Yeaple Study (1994)
According to Ronald
Yeaple, it is only profitable
to go to one of the top 15
Business Schools –
otherwise you have a
NEGATIVE NPV!
(Economist, Aug. 6, 1994)
Benefits of Learning
School Net Value ($)
Harvard $148,378
Chicago $106,378
Stanford $97,462
MIT (Sloan) $85,736
Yale $83,775
Northwestern $53,526
Berkeley $54,101
Wharton $59,486
UCLA $55,088
Virginia $30,046
Cornell $30,974
Michigan $21,502
Dartmouth $22,509
Carnegie Mellon $18,679
Texas $17,459
Rochester - $307
Indiana - $3,315
North Carolina - $4,565
Duke - $17,631
NYU - $3,749
Things he may
have missed
• Future uncertainty (interest rates,
future salary, etc)
• Cost of Living differences
• Type of Job [utility function = f($, enjoyment)]
• Girlfriend / Boyfriend / Family concerns
• Others?
Another example
Scenario analysis
• The simple sensitivity analysis assumes that
variables are independent of each other. In practice,
the variables will be interrelated and they may
change in combination. One way to examine the risk
of investment is to analyse the impact of alternative
combinations of variables, called scenarios, on the
project’s NPV (or IRR)
Scenario analysis
• Examlpe -we assume volume 1,250, selling price `18,
variable cost `10.50 and fixed cost `5,500. After entering
these values, you click OK; the Scenario Manager
dialogue box will appear. You can click Add to enter
another scenario. If you highlight scenario, Expected
Scenario and click on Show, the Worksheet will change
to show cash flows and NPV.

Cont..
Simulations/ Monte Carlo Analysis
The Monte Carlo simulation or simply the simulation analysis considers the
interactions among variables and probabilities of the change in variables.
It does not give the project’s NPV as a single number; rather it computes
the probability distribution of NPV. The simulation analysis is an extension
of scenario analysis. In simulation analysis a computer generates a very
large number of scenarios according to the probability distributions of the
variables
Step 1 – Model the project (where are choices made, where are the
chances)
Step 2 – Assign Probabilities to outcomes (assumption)
Step 3 – Simulate the Cash Flows (use a computer simulation program)
The result will be a probability distribution.
Thank You
