Explain How Probability Analysis Could Be Used to Assess the Risk

Question 21

Multiple Choice

Explain how probability analysis could be used to assess the risk of the evaluated projects. Select all the true statements.

A) The company can determine a range of possible outcomes for each of the cash flows in the project, for example, a high, low and medium estimate of each cash flow could be determined.
B) The net present value (NPV) of the project, if all high, low or medium estimates occurred, can be calculated along with the combined probabilities of their occurrence.
C) The probabilities can be combined to calculate the expected value of each cash flow element and of the project as a whole
D) The NPVs of a sample range of possible outcomes and the probability of each NPV can be calculated. If a small sample is taken the distribution of outcomes can be used to calculate the zero activities deviation of the NPVs and the probability of success of the projects.
