WHAT IF … ?

• Because of imperfect competition for profitable projects, you could earn

a return on idiosyncratic risk?

• Due to regulation, you had to allocate risk capacity optimally over time?

• You wanted to value an asset in the context of your nondiversified,

nonmarketable portfolio?

• How would you price assets in this case?

Page 3: RPV: PRESENT VALUE RECONSIDERED 0917 Shimko.pdf · • No taxes, transaction costs, informational differences • Unrestricted short sales allowed, divisible assets • AND homogeneous

CAN YOU ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS?

• Assume (for now) that an asset’s cash flows are uncorrelated with every

priced market risk factor.

• If the expected cash flow is positive, should the value ever be negative?

• Should valuation ever be non-additive?

• Should the value ever depend on correlation across time?

• Should the order of cash flows (i.e. resolution of uncertainty) ever affect the

valuation?

• Should hedging ever add value?

• If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, a case can be made for RPV

JOHN LINTNER PRESENTED WAS ON THE RIGHT TRACK IN 1965

• Under the assumptions of the CAPM, and

• Given a set of one period projects with different risk characteristics,

• Select the projects to maximize value subject to a budget constraint

• This is an integer programming problem (ACCEPT/REJECT)

• Lagrangian multiplier on the constraint is the shadow price of internal capital,

i.e. the corporate hurdle rate

Page 5: RPV: PRESENT VALUE RECONSIDERED 0917 Shimko.pdf · • No taxes, transaction costs, informational differences • Unrestricted short sales allowed, divisible assets • AND homogeneous

BUT WHAT WE TEACH MBAS TODAY HAS GOTTEN OFF TRACK

• Assuming we can recapitalize the firm, then the capital constraint is nonbinding,

• and the CAPM acceptance criteria hold:

• Discount cash flows of each project at its CAPM-based hurdle rate

• Whenever NPV>0, accept the project

• What have we done?

• Effectively we have imposed all the CAPM assumptions

• Perfect markets

• No taxes, transaction costs, informational differences

• Unrestricted short sales allowed, divisible assets

• AND homogeneous investors with CRRA

• PLUS we have assumed that firms have infinite access to fairly priced capital

• PLUS we have assumed that risk is a constant percentage of value over time

• AND we’ve barely changed the model since the 1960s

THE NEED FOR NEW VALUATION METHODSHAS NEVER BEEN GREATER

• Firms with limited capital need to maximize value subject to available capital, implying a cost of risk (i.e. the Lagrange multiplier on the risk constraint), especially true for financial institutions

• Lintner (1965)

• Incomplete markets support ranges of equilibrium prices which may be bounded by “good-deal” restrictions on the maximum Sharpe ratio, or other variables related to standard deviation

• Carr, Geman & Madan (2001), Campbell & Saá-Requejo (2000)

• In principal-agent formulations, risk averse managers maximize expected discounted utility, a concave function of future value, implying a “cost of risk”

• In practice, corporations use hurdle rates that far exceed predicted rates

• Jagannathan et al (2016, 2011) consistent with pricing of operational risk and investment timing options

• Maier & Tarhan (2004) – Hurdle rates in practice exceed arbitrage-based estimates by 5%

• The premium correlates with idiosyncratic risk

SO WHY HAVEN’T WE DEVELOPEDCASH FLOW VALUATION METHODS THAT…

1. Allow different private valuations for heterogeneous market participants

2. Lead to negative valuations as risk becomes too large

3. Consider multiperiod cash flows, which are not spanned by market risk factors

• Be sensitive to correlations between cash flows across time, however they arise

• Be sensitive to risk and different patterns of risk resolution

4. Address firms with capital constraints, agency problems, undiversified ownership

structure and other market imperfections

5. Apply equally well to financial institutions and corporations generally: i.e. help

finance and insurance “converge”

6. Integrate benchmark pricing with the pricing of unspanned risks

7. Explain the difference between hurdle rates in theory and practice

8. Allocate risk charges appropriately by period

9. Be used to price both cash and derivative instruments

CAN WE AGREE ON A ONE PERIOD MODEL?

PROBLEM: C1 is normally distributed (,) and the risk-free rate is r. What is the value of C1 today?

MULTIPERIOD SEEMS SIMPLE AT FIRST…

• Value a set of cash flows at discrete times i{1..N} that are

multivariate normal with mean vector and covariance matrix

• Issues:

• Intertemporal correlations – may be strongly negative

• Incomplete markets

• Portfolio effects

• Nondiversifiable risks – even if idiosyncratic

• Constrained capital and balance sheets – implying a cost of risk

• CAPM/APT useful, but only for systemic risk pricing

IS THERE A FINANCIAL ENGINEER IN THE ROOM?

• How would you value this?

• Reminder:

• Value a set of cash flows at discrete times i{1..N}

• Multivariate normal

• Mean vector and covariance matrix

• Assume for now

• Riskfree rate is zero

• Idiosyncratic risk, nondiversifiable

• Risk measure is the conditional dollar stdev of asset value

• Asset value (V) defined by sum of known and unknown

cash flows (C)

USE BACKWARD INDUCTION TO VALUE CASH FLOWS

• Set required return equal to

expected return at time N-1 and

work backward

• i = information known at time i

• VN = C1

• VN-1 = E(VN|N-1) – k Var(VN|N-1)½

• = Regression prediction of mean – k

(Regression residual variance) ½

• k = cost of risk as measured by standard

deviation

• VN-2 = E(VN-1|N-2) – k Var(VN-1|N-2)½

• …

• V0 = E(V1|0) – k Var(V1|0)½

• V0 = 1 – k (11)½

• Total risk = square root of the grand sum of the

covariance matrix

Page 13: RPV: PRESENT VALUE RECONSIDERED 0917 Shimko.pdf · • No taxes, transaction costs, informational differences • Unrestricted short sales allowed, divisible assets • AND homogeneous

BUT WHAT IS K?

• Solving the GVE for k;

• This is the Sharpe Ratio, expressed in dollar terms. or the $Sharpe

Ratio

• In this measure of performance, risk need not be proportional to value.

THE RPV PRESENT VALUE FORMULAAND ITS PROPERTIES

V0 = 1 – k (11)½

15

• Selected Properties

• Idiosyncratic risk matters

• Correlation between cash flows matters

• Value is not generally additive

• Value is homogeneous of degree 1 in the

cash flows

• Incremental project valuation depends on

the order of the cash flows

• Negative values are possible under some

conditions

INCORPORATING BENCHMARKS

• The RPV model easily adapts to account for covariance risk and idiosyncratic risk

• Example: Energy loan

• Define for M time-neutralized market risk factors

• = (1, 2, … M) A vector of the cost of risk for each factor m=1..M

• CB = {cov(Ci,rim)} An (NxM) matrix of covariances of cash flows with returns on market

benchmarks

• R = Covariance matrix of residual cash flow risk by period, after controlling for priced

factors

• Then deduct the market risk charges to obtain the certainty equivalent valuation

• V0 = 1 – 𝚺𝐂𝐁′ 1 – k (1R1)½

EXAMPLE 1 CONTINUED:RPV CALCULATIONS

• Assume valuation requires a Sharpe Ratio of 2 for unhedgeable risks (k=2)

• The chart compares the traditional finance valuation (k=0) with the

RPV valuation

• Excess return per unit risk is verified to be constant and equal to 2

• The conventional IRR=13.01%

EXAMPLE 2:CAPITAL STRUCTURE IN INCOMPLETE MARKETS

• Company has random walk cash flows from Example 1

• Debtholders and equity holders both value their claims with k=2

• Interest payments are tax deductible

• The corporate tax rate is 40%

• Default triggered if cash flow is insufficient to pay interest

• Penalty $25 per default

• What is the optimal debt level?

19

• Steps

• Simulate cash flows and allocate

• Debt = Contractual

• Government = Tax proceeds

• Equity = Residual

• Use RPV to value equity

• Choose debt level (contractual

debt payment) to maximize equity

value to current equityholders

EXAMPLE 2 CONTINUED:RPV CALCULATIONS FOR CAPITAL STRUCTURE

• This is analogous to both…

• Merton (1974)

• DeAngelo and Masulis (1980)

• Optimal interest level (90-100)

maximizes equity value

• Equals firm value since equityholders get debt proceeds

• Debt credit spread is endogenous

to the model

• NOTE:

• Driven by cash flow modeling

METHODOLOGY SUMMARY: SIMULATION IMPLEMENTATION

RPV: V0 = 1 – 𝚺𝐂𝐁′ 1 – k (1R1)½

1. Simulate cash flows, find covariances with priced benchmarks and over time

2. PV cash flow means and covariance matrices at the risk-free rate

3. Set k = your threshold Sharpe ratio, or calibrate to model

4. Add up the means

5. Subtract market risk charges

6. Subtract k times the square root of the grand sum of the covariance matrix

7. Accept the project if RPV>0

8. Reduce operational risks if reduction in risk charge exceeds cost of risk

reduction

CONCLUSIONS

• RPV is a new valuation framework that provides a risk-free return on

cash, a covariance-based risk premium on market risks, and a

premium for residual risks based on a minimum required Sharpe ratio.

• The usual NPV is a nested special case, which obtains when the cost

of idiosyncratic risk, k=0.

• The RPV valuation framework is consistent with incomplete markets,

optimization of firm value with constraints on capital and agency-

theoretic firm valuation models.

• RPV is friendly to nonlinear relationships.

• RPV is tractable, flexible and straightforward to calibrate and

implement

• RPV addresses all the listed NPV issues mentioned on page 7.

VALUING A CASH FLOW IN INCOMPLETE MARKETS

• Use RPV to value a nonspannable cash flow ST at time T

• Let dS = S dz

• Let V(S,) = value of the cash flow with periods to maturity

• Consider the valuation V = S exp[-(r+k)]

• V earns a constant continuous Sharpe Ratio

• Proof

•𝐸 𝑑𝑉 −𝑟𝑉

𝑆𝑡𝑑𝐷𝑒𝑣(𝑑𝑉)=

𝑟+𝑘𝜎 𝑉 −𝑟𝑉

𝜎𝑉= 𝑘

26

The cash flow is discounted usingThe riskless rate plus a risk premium of k

OPTION ON AN NONTRADED CASH FLOW27

• V = S exp[-(r+k)]

• Value of nontraded call option is C(V,)

• C(V,0)=Max(V-X,0)

• E(dC) = (r+k)VCV + ½2V2CVV − V

• StdDev(dC) = VCV

• Set the same $Sharpe ratio for C as V

• Valid since dC and dV are perfectly

correlated

• k =𝐸 𝑑𝐶 −𝑟𝐶

𝑆𝑡𝑑𝐷𝑒𝑣(𝑑𝐶)

• RESULTS

• k disappears from the differential

equation!

• The equation looks familiar

• rC = rVCV + ½2V2CVV − V

• Relative to V, this is Black-Scholes-

Merton

• Relative to W…

• The risk premium on the stock does

affect the option value, but only

through its effect on V

BSM WITHOUT RISK NEUTRALITY

• dS = S dt + S dW (now using S as the stock price!)

• Derivative value is C(S,)

• Required return (C is an unknown function) = Expected return (Ito’s Lemma)

• CC = SCS + ½2S2CSS − C (*)

• Beta of C wrt S = CS = CSS/C (elasticity)

• Then assume a single factor benchmark model, projecting the

instantaneous return of the call onto the stock:

• C = r + CS( - r)

• Substitute C and CS into (*) and the BSM differential equation

obtains immediately!

CONCLUSIONS TO THE BONUS ROUND

• BSM can still obtain when the underlying asset is untradeable

• This is because the value of an option does not depend on the expected

return of the underlying, even in this situation

• You don’t need a hedge portfolio, continuous trading or even tradability

to obtain the BSM differential equation for an option

• You only need assume one of:

• the underlying and the option have the same dollarized Sharpe ratio

• The single benchmark model applies in continuous time
