RISK MEASUREMENT
13-5 Measuring Stand-Alone Risk
- Sensitivity Analysis
THREE TECHNIQUES ARE USED
- Scenario Analysis TO ASSESS STAND-ALONE RISK
- Monte Carlo Simulation
13-5a Sensitivity Analysis
Percentage change in NPV
resulting from a given
percentage change in an
input variable, other things
held constant.
- Base-Case Scenario
- Worst-Case Scenario
- Best-Case Scenario
13-5c Monte Carlo Simulation
“A risk analysis technique in which probable future Monte Carlo Simulation Analysis
events are simulated on a computer, generating
estimated rates of return and risk indexes” • A computerized version of scenario
analysis which uses continuous
probability distributions
Histogram of Results • Computer selects values for each
variable based on given probability
distributions
• NPV and IRR are calculated
• Process is repeated many times
(1,000 or more)
• End result: Probability distribution
of NPV and IRR based on sample
of simulated values
• Generally shown graphically

and or
Key Highlight :
- The calculation of Stand Alone Risk will be the consideration for Within Firm Risk
and Beta Risk
- Correlation coefficient between project’s returns and returns on the firm’s other
assets
13 – 6. Within Firm and Beta Risk
Conclusion:
1. Hard to define the measurement of Within Firm Risk and Beta Risk for each
project.
2. The returns of each project have a positive correlation with asset and stock
market. It happens because there is a correlation between stand alone risk and
within firm & beta risk.
3. Judgmental assessment is being used by the manager to create capital
budgeting. The quantitative measurement (NPV) also becomes one
consideration while deciding a project.
4. All the variable calculation method should be used instead of computerized
calculation.
Example
13.7 Unequal
Project Lives
When mutually-exclusive projects have
unequal useful lives, capital budgeting
decision is made based on annual net
present value (also called equivalent
annual annuity) method or replacement
chain method.
a. Traditional Analysis
b. Replacement Chain adjustment
c. Equivalent Annual Annuity (EAA) Method
d. Conclusion Unequal Lives
