Book Fuzzy and Robust Optimization Approaches to Capital Rationing and Capital Budgeting with Several Uncertainties

Download or read book Fuzzy and Robust Optimization Approaches to Capital Rationing and Capital Budgeting with Several Uncertainties written by Esra Baş and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Capital budgeting problems are linear or non-linear programming models that address the solution of the level of investment in projects by considering basically budget limits. Additional constraints such as borrowing limit constraint or scarce resource constraint are also possible. In this thesis, we study the uncertainty in different capital rationing and capital budgeting problems by considering fuzzy and robust optimization approaches. Fuzzy mathematical programming includes the defuzzification of a fuzzy model by using a fuzzy relation, and analysis and solution of the model by using deterministic mathematical programming techniques. On the other hand, robust optimization approach includes the best solution of the model by considering the worst realization of the uncertain parameters. Although both approaches are devoted to the solution of the models by considering uncertainty , a model solved by fuzzy mathematical programming does not necessarily have to be robust. In this thesis, we. first examine the fuzzy mathematical programming approaches to the Lorie-Savage capital rationing model in the literature, and illustrate the models with the numerical examples. In the other sections devoted to the fuzzy optimization, we propose the defuzzification of Weingartner's pure capital rationing model by triangular norm (t-norm) fuzzy relation and Bernhard's model by t-norm and triangular conorm (t-conorm) fuzzy relations and their detailed analysis. We also propose the decision rules for intemal rate of retum (IRR) in case of cash flow uncertainty .In the chapters devoted to robust optimization, we extend the robust optimization approach to W eingartner' s pure capital rationing and horizon capital budgeting models proposed in the literature by considering additional parameters as uncertain. We also redefine the decision rules of investment appraisal techniques for simple projects analogous to robust optimization. All model propositions are accompanied by computation analysis, which proves the applicability and practicality of the proposed models.

Book An Analysis of the Multiple Objective Capital Budgeting Problem Via Fuzzy Linear Integer  0 1  Programming

Download or read book An Analysis of the Multiple Objective Capital Budgeting Problem Via Fuzzy Linear Integer 0 1 Programming written by Michael George Headly and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A multiple objective fuzzy liner programming approach to the capital budgeting problem is developed. Since much of the available data in any capital budgeting decision situation is either of an imprecise or ill-defined nature, a mathematical optimization technique is required that is capable of incorporating this inherent uncertainty. Fuzzy linear programming provides an effective methodology for this analysis. Specifically, a mathematical model is developed which utilizes fuzzy linear programming as a solution technique for the research and development program or project selection problem. In addition an exchange heuristic, a modified form of C.C. Peterson's exchange algorithm, is presented. A limited bibliography of works in multiple objective optimization is presented. Two computer codes are included. The first utilizes the IBM MPSX/Mixed Integer Programming procedures to solve the (0-1) linear integer programming problem. The second is a FORTRAN program to solve the exchange heuristic algorithm discussed previously. (Author).

Book Mathematical Programming and Financial Objectives for Scheduling Projects

Download or read book Mathematical Programming and Financial Objectives for Scheduling Projects written by Alf Kimms and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mathematical Programming and Financial Objectives for Scheduling Projects focuses on decision problems where the performance is measured in terms of money. As the title suggests, special attention is paid to financial objectives and the relationship of financial objectives to project schedules and scheduling. In addition, how schedules relate to other decisions is treated in detail. The book demonstrates that scheduling must be combined with project selection and financing, and that scheduling helps to give an answer to the planning issue of the amount of resources required for a project. The author makes clear the relevance of scheduling to cutting budget costs. The book is divided into six parts. The first part gives a brief introduction to project management. Part two examines scheduling projects in order to maximize their net present value. Part three considers capital rationing. Many decisions on selecting or rejecting a project cannot be made in isolation and multiple projects must be taken fully into account. Since the requests for capital resources depend on the schedules of the projects, scheduling taken on more complexity. Part four studies the resource usage of a project in greater detail. Part five discusses cases where the processing time of an activity is a decision to be made. Part six summarizes the main results that have been accomplished.

Book Capital Budgeting Under Conditions of Uncertainty

Download or read book Capital Budgeting Under Conditions of Uncertainty written by R.L. Crum and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The business environment, particularly after the continuing oil crises of the seventies, can be characterized as evolving rapidly in complex and often unpre dictable ways. Such things as high interest and inflation rates, fluctuating ex change rates, volatile commodity markets, and increasing political turmoil have led to a situation in which explicit consideration of environmental dynamics is becoming much more important for successful business planning than was true in the past. Companies are finding that it is no longer possible to conduct "busi ness as usual" under these changing circumstances. Rather, decision makers are having to be more cognizant of the many sources of uncertainty that could have serious impacts on the continued prosperity of the firm, as well as of actions that can be taken so that the company can thrive in spite of these greater uncertainties. Businesses have responded to these challenges by giving more thorough con sideration to strategic issues. Whereas in the past the steady progression of mar kets and technology was taken for granted, the uncertainties associated with increased worldwide competition, as well as with other exogenous factors, have vii viii INTRODUCTION forced companies to think more about flexibility. This involves not only how best to exploit profitable current options, but also how to position themselves at present to be able to respond appropriately to threats and opportunities as they arise in the future. Unfortunately, in this redirection of outlook, the fmance profession has not kept pace.

Book Mathematical Programming and Capital Budgeting Under Risk

Download or read book Mathematical Programming and Capital Budgeting Under Risk written by Alvin K. Klevorick and published by . This book was released on 1966 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research discussed in this paper and the work of which it forms a part consitute another exception to the general stream of capital-budgeting literature. The larger work is concerned first with decision-making under risk when the decisions and the risks extend over more than one period of time. Then capital-budgeting under risk is studied as a particular example of such decision-making. This paper limits its concern to a discussion of a particular type of capital-budgeting problem when risk exists. (Author).

Book The Collected Essays of Richard E  Quandt

Download or read book The Collected Essays of Richard E Quandt written by Richard E. Quandt and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 1992-01-01 with total page 876 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Professor Richard Quandt has made a major contribution to the development of economics in the 20th century. The range and significance of his work has long required a collection of his essays which will allow his contribution to be assessed as a whole. Despite an early interest in microeconomic theory, Richard Quandt has devoted most of his career to econometrics and, in particular, modal split estimation. More recently his work has focused on the econometrics of disequilibrium models with reference to both free market and planned economies. As well as outlining his many articles in microtheory, general econometrics, disequilibrium modeling, financial economics and the economics of planned economies, this collection should have a particular value for all scholars interested in the emergence of the new economies in Eastern Europe, a subject to which Professor Quandt has applied himself in recent years. This book includes an introduction by Professor Quandt describing his early life in Budapest and the circumstances which led him to study economics in America.
