In the same vein, real options are capital allocation options that allow managers the right, but not the obligation, to undertake certain business initiatives in the future. Such initiatives may include deferment, abandonment, or project expansion. Fundamentally, these initiatives can alter the value of today&#8217;s investment decisions.<\/p>\n<p>The following are types of real options:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Timing options<\/strong>: A company delays investing now with the hopes that improved information in the future could help improve the NPV of a project.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sizing options<\/strong>: An abandonment option allows a company to abandon a project when results are discouraging. This option can be exercised when the cash flow of abandoning a project exceeds the present value of continuing the project. On the other hand, a growth option allows a company to make additional investments based on the prospects of strong future financial results.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Flexibility options<\/strong>: The price-setting option permits a company to increase its prices. A company can take advantage of excess demand, which it cannot meet by increasing its production due to low capacity. The company can also use production-flexibility options to profit from additional shifts and overtime to meet the additional demand.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fundamental options<\/strong>: Payoffs from a project, such as mining minerals, increase or decrease the value of an investment depending on whether they will find the mineral. Many research and development projects are examples of fundamental options.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There are four common approaches to evaluating capital projects with real options:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Using the DCF (discounted cash flow) without considering options. If the NPV is positive without considering real options, a firm goes ahead with an investment.<\/li>\n<li>Using DCF, then subtracting the incremental costs of the real options and adding the real options value using the formula:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>$$\\begin{align}\\text{Project\u2019s NPV} = &amp; \\text{NPV (based on discount cash flows alone)} \\\\ &amp;\u2013 \\text{Cost of options + Value of options}\\end{align}$$<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li>Decision trees and option pricing models.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h4><strong>Example: Project NPV With a Real Option<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>McGill Automotive estimates the NPV of a new assembly plant to be -$600,000. The firm is evaluating an additional investment of $700,000 (present value). This firm will enable the management to pay overtime wages to workers in the new assembly plant if the new product crosses over to global markets. The option has an estimated present value of $2 million.<\/p>\n<p>What is the value of the new assembly plant, including the real option?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Solution<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>$$\\begin{align}\\text{Project\u2019s NPV} &amp; = \\text{NPV (based on discount cash flows alone)} \\\\ &amp;\u2013 \\text{Cost of options + Value of options}\\\\&amp; = \u2013600,000 \u2013 700,000 + 2,000,000 \\\\&amp;= \\$700,000\\end{align}$$<\/p>\n<p>The project has a positive NPV after considering the costs and benefits of the real options.
