Expected Net Present Value of Sample Information

Expected Net Present Value of Sample Information

Expected net present value, expected net future value, and the Ramsey rule

Weitzman (1998) showed that when future interest rates are uncertain, using the expected net present value implies a term structure of discount rates that is decreasing to the smallest possible interest rate. On the contrary, using the expected net future value criteria implies an increasing term structure of discount rates up to the largest possible interest rate. We reconcile the two approach...

Expected Value of Sample Information in .facility

In this paper we discuss the stochastic facility location model in which the distances between the facility and demand points are rectangular and each weight is normlilly distributed independent random variable with unknown mean and known variance. We are interested in rmding the value of information. In general, perfect information is not attainable, but sample information may be obtained. Thu...

Project Portfolio Selection with the Maximization of Net Present Value

Projects scheduling by the project portfolio selection, something that has its own complexity and its flexibility, can create different composition of the project portfolio. An integer programming model is formulated for the project portfolio selection and scheduling.Two heuristic algorithms, genetic algorithm (GA) and simulated annealing (SA), are presented to solve the problem. Results of cal...
