I read real option analysis in Wikipedia. I have learnt many things from this article which I am sharing with you.
1. Real Option analysis is very useful in investment decisions.
2. Real options are today an active field of academic research. This line is taken from wikipedia’s article “real options analysis”. It means large numbers of scholars are still researching on this topic. So, it is not the part of syllabus of financial management in India for MBA classes. That is the reason, I could not read it earlier.
3. I come to know from the article that capital investment decision’s modern name is real option decision. Professor Eduardo Schwartz is the founder and father of this analysis.
4. Due to my field is also accounting and finance, I can guide you how can this analysis be used in investment decision. Suppose, a company want to purchase any active firm or company. It means company is interested to buy its all assets and takeover its all liabilities or the other side a company is interested to sell his company. So such decisions are taken by using strategic option. Knowledge of making business strategy is very useful for study of real option analysis.
5. Prof. Campbell of Fuqua School of Business has written the article “Identifying Real Options” in which he tells that we can also take decision to Abandon or terminate any investment project under real Options if revenues will not cover variable costs.
6. In case of uncertainty, real option analysis model can be used. For more research, The Annual International Conference on Real Options is done by the scholars of all top universities of the world. Its stated aim is to "bring together academics and practitioners at the forefront of real options and investment under uncertainty to discuss recent developments and applications." In June 2010, the conference will be held Rome, Italy.
7. After study of real option analysis, I think it is deep and researchable project in which we can include competition and strategy, R&D, entrepreneurship and innovation, new product development, capabilities, infrastructure and network investments, valuation of natural resources, commodities and power investments, growth options, corporate valuation and IPOs, investments involving learning, agency issues and incentives, environmental protection and public policy, case studies etc.
8. Prof. Alfred Rappaport has given Steps to calculate the value of A Company's "Real Options". Readers who want to apply real-options tools may wish to download the accompanying spreadsheet.
