Modelling Stochastic Political Risk for Capital Budgeting
In this paper we model political risk for international capital budgeting as the value of a hypothetical insurance policy that pays the holder any and all losses arising from political events. We address three important aspects of political risk that are widely acknowledged in the literature but either missing or incomplete in existing mathematical models: 1) loss causing political events arise...
متن کاملCapital Accumulation and Embodied Technological Progress
This paper combines technology adoption with capital accumulation taking into account technological progress. We model this as a multi-stage optimal control problem and solve it using the corresponding maximum principle. The model with linear revenue can be solved analytically, while the model with market power is solved numerically. We obtain that investment jumps upwards right at the moment t...
متن کاملFuzzy capital budgeting
Fuzzy equivalents of all the classical capital budgeting (investment choice) methods are generalised or proposed. These equivalents can be used to evaluate and compare projects in which the cash ows, duration time and required rate of return (cost of capital) are given imprecisely, in the form of a fuzzy number. c © 2000 Elsevier Science B.V.

متن کاملReal Options – Capital Budgeting
Most investment decisions present the following three characteristics: • Irreversibility: The investment is partially or completely sunk, i.e. it cannot be recovered. • Uncertainty: The best that can be done is to assess the probabilities of the alternative outcomes that can imply larger or smaller profits. • Timing: The decision can be postponed in order to get more information (but never comp...
متن کاملOptimal capital accumulation and embodied technological progress under uncertainty¤
This paper proposes a stochastic model of investment with embodied technological progress, in which ...rms invest not only to expand the capacity as in Pindyck (1988) but also to replace old machines. The scrapping decision or the age of the oldest machine is then endogenous and evolves stochastically. Uncertainty increases the optimal age of the machines in use, and due to uncertainty, not onl...
