In traditional financial theory, the discount cash flow model(DCF or NPV) operates as the basic framework for most analyses. In doing valuation analysis, the conventional view is that the net present value(NPV) of a project is the measure of the present value of expected net cash flows. Thus, investing in a positive(negative) NPV project will increase(decrease) firm value. Recently, this framework has come under some fire for failing to consider the options of the managerial flexibilities. Real option valuation(ROV) considers the managerial flexibility to make ongoing decisions regarding the implementation of investment projects and the deployment of real assets. The appeal of the framework is natural given the high degree of uncertainty that firms face in their technology investment decisions. This paper suggests an algorithm for estimating volatility of logarithmic cash flow returns of real assets based on the Black-Sholes option pricing model, the binomial option pricing model, and the Monte Carlo simulation. This paper uses those models to obtain point estimates of real option value with the G7- HSR350X(high-speed train).

PURPOSES : This study evaluates the economic value of national highway construction projects using Real Option Pricing Models. METHODS : We identified the option premium for uncertainties associated with flexibilities according to the future's change in national highway construction projects. In order to evaluate value of future's underlying asset, we calculated the volatility of the unit price per year for benefit estimation such as VOTS, VOCS, VICS, VOPCS and VONCS that the "Transportation Facility Investment Evaluation Guidelines" presented. RESULTS : We evaluated the option premium of underlying asset through a case study of the actual national highway construction projects using ROPM. And in order to predict the changes in the option value of the future's underlying asset, we evaluated the changes of option premium for future's uncertainties by the defer of the start of construction work, the contract of project scale, and the abandon of project during pre-land compensation stages that were occurred frequently in the highway construction projects. Finally we analyzed the sensitivity of the underlying asset using volatility, risk free rate and expiration date of option. CONCLUSIONS : We concluded that a highway construction project has economic value even though static NPV had a negative(-) value because of the sum of the existing static NPV and the option premium for the future's uncertainties associated with flexibilities.

We provide a partial differential equation for European options on a stock whose price process follows a general geometric Riemannian Brownian motion. The existence and the uniqueness of solutions to the partial differential equation are investigated, and then an expression of the value for European options is obtained using the fundamental solution technique. Proper Riemannian metrics on the real number field can make the distribution of return rates of the stock induced by our model have the character of leptokurtosis and fat-tail; in addition, they can also explain option pricing bias and implied volatility smile (skew).

Black-Scholes equation arising from option pricing in the presence of cost in trading the underlying asset is derived. The transaction cost is chosen precisely and generalized to reflect the trade in the real world. Furthermore the concept of the bandwidth is introduced to obtain the better rehedging. The model with bandwidth derived in this paper can be used to calculate the more accurate option price numerically even if it is nonlinear and more complicated than the models shown before.

The limited public funds available for infrastructure projects have led governments to consider private entities' participation in long-term contracts for finance, construction, and operation of these projects to share risks and rewards between the public and the private. Because these projects have complicated risk evolutions, diverse contractual forms for each project member to hedge risks involved in a project are necessary. In light of this, Build-Operate-Transfer(BOT) model is considered as effective to accomplish Public Private Partnerships(PPPs) with a characteristic of an ownership-reversion. In BOT projects, the government has used such an incentive system as minimum revenue guarantee(MRG) agreement to attract the private's participation. Although this agreement turns out critical in success of BOT project, there still exist problematic issues in a financial feasibility analysis since the traditional capital budgeting theory, Net Present Value(NPV) analysis, has failed to evaluate the contingent characteristic of MRG agreement. The purpose of this research is to develop real option model based on option pricing theory so as to provide a theoretical framework in valuing MRG agreement in BOT projects. To understand the applicability of the model, the model is applied to the example of the BOT toll road project and the results are compared with that by NPV analysis. Finally, we found that the impact of the MRG agreement is significant on the project value. Hence, the real option model can help the government establish better BOT policies and the developer make appropriate bidding strategies.

해외자원개발사업은 성공할 경우 높은 수익률을 보장하지만 장기적인 투자기간과 높은 시장위험부담으로 인하여 사업의 가치분석에 있어서 사업기간 동안의 여러 가지 변수들을 분석할 수 있는 유연성을 요구하고 있다. 기업의 투자 의사결정과정에서 가장 널리 이용되는 평가방법인 전통적 기존의 현금흐름할인법의 단점을 보완할 대안으로서 제시된 옵션가격 결정모형(Option Pricing Model)을 여타의 다른 자산의 평가 및 사업성 평가에 응용하고자 하는 연구 분야인 실물옵션(Real Options)은 특히 위험도가 큰 자원개발사업의 가치를 평가할 좋은 방법론으로 주목받아왔으나, 다양한 현실적 상황을 도입하게 되면 확률과정이 난해한 형태로 변하여 수학적 처리가 용이하지 않아 실용화에 가장 큰 걸림돌로 작용하고 있다. 따라서 기존의 연구들은 확률과정의 선정과정에서 자원개발사업의 특성이나 실용성을 고려하여 확률과정을 선정하지 않고 기초적인 확률과정을 적용하여 왔다. 본 연구에서는 해외자원개발사업을 대상으로 옵션가격 결정모형을 활용하는 경우를 산정하여, 해외자원개발사업의 평가에 쉽게 활용될 수 있는 단순화된 함수의 형태로 표현된 옵션가격 결정모형을 제시해 보았다. 즉, 이론적인 정교한 확률과정을 도출하기보다는 자원개발사업의 특징을 충분히 반영하면서도 사업평가실무에 손쉽게 이용될 수 있는 현실적이면서도 단순한 확률과정을 선정하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 구리, 연, 아연의 국제시장가격의 특성과 연-아연광 개발사업의 사례를 활용하여 기존의 모형연구들과 달리 실제의 위험을 모두 분석하되, 분석하는 모형을 최대한 단순화하여가는 과정을 통하여 Gibson-Schwartz가 제안한 Two-Factor Model과 Long-Term Asset Model을 적절한 모형으로 선정하고, 이를 바탕으로 운영옵션과 투자개시옵션의 두 가지 경영옵션을 분석하여 그 결과를 제시하였다. 본 연구에서 분석, 제안한 단순화 과정은 앞으로 옵션가격 결정이론을 바탕으로 한 가치평가모형의 실제사례 적용연구에서 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

Black와 Scholes (1973)와 Merton (1973)의 옵션 가격결정이론에 대한 논문이 발표 된 이후 다양한 실증 분석 결과에 의하여 시간의 흐름에 따라 변동성이 불변한다고 가정하는 Black-Scholes 모형이 시장의 옵션 가격을 적절히 설명하지 못하고 있다는 것이 밝혀지면서 많은 대안적인 연구들이 진행되어 왔다. 예를 들어, Duan (1995)은 위험중립측도 하에서의 몬테카를로 시뮬레이션을 통해 GARCH 모형을 따르는 기초 자산의 옵션가격을 도출하는 방법을 제시하였다. 그러나 실제 주식이나 환율 등의 금융자료에 수익률분포는 정규분포에 비해 꼬리가 두껍고, 급첨의 형태를 보이는 데 Duan (1995)의 옵션가격 결정 방법은 이를 적절히 반영하지 못하고 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 정규혼합모형의 오차를 갖는 GARCH 모형을 이용한 옵션가격 결정 방법을 제안하고자 한다. KOSPI200 옵션가격 자료를 이용하여 본 논문에서 제시된 옵션가격과 정규분포를 가정한 GARCH 모형에 의해 결정된 옵션가격과 비교한 결과, 금융 자료의 급첨의 성질이 뚜렷한 불안정한 시기인 경우에 오차가 정규혼합모형이라고 가정한 GARCH 모형에 의한 옵션가격 결정의 성과가 월등히 좋아지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

This paper seeks to measure the monetary value of technical development in the deep seabed manganese nodule mining by applying the compound option model (COM). The COM is appropriate for the project in terms of its decision-making structure and embedded uncertainty. The estimation results show that the deep seabed mining project has more economic potential than shown by the previously obtained results from the discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis. In addition, it is reasonable to invest in the project taking the various uncertainty factors into consideration, because the ratio of the value to the cost of the project is far higher than one. This information can be utilized in national ocean policy decision-making.

In this paper, we propose the valuation frame of the IT(Information Technology) ventures using ROV(Real Options Valuation) model. Generally, ROV can comprises the traditional valuation method such as DCF(Discounted Cash Flow), which can measure only the tangible value of a firm from the expected future earnings, in that ROV can additionally measure the intangible value such as the strategic value of a firm in the uncertain environment. We set up the hypothetic IT venture future investment plan and assume that there are a growth option and a switching option consequently along the investment time horizon, which are caused by each characteristics of ventures and IT technologies, especially modularity. In the case that there are several embedded real options in the firm's investment plan in a row, we should apply the compound option pricing model as a real option valuation model in order to consider the value interaction between real options. In an addition, we present the results of optimal investment timing analysis using real options approach and compare them. with those of the original assumed investment timing.

Traditionally, companies have been concerned with making an investment decision either to go now or never to go forever. However, owing to the development of the theory of options pricing in a financial investment field and its introduction to the appraisal of real investments in these days, we are now partially allowed to derive the value of a managerial flexibility of real investment projects. In this paper, we derived a general mathematical model to price the option value of real investment projects assuming that they have only one-period of time under which uncertainty exists. This mathematical model was developed based on the opportunity cost concept. We will show a simple numerical example to illustrate how the mathematical model works comparing it with the existing models.
