Risk adjustment, investment policy, and valuation for an unlevered firm
Abstract
We characterize the optimal investment decision and the stock value of an unlevered firm that holds the non-standard option of improving the growth rate of cashflows from its assets in place upon incurring an irreversible cost. The firm's investment policy and equity price are studied as a function of the market price of risk, of cashflow's exposure to systematic risk, and of cashflow volatility.Download Info
