Utilização da opção de diferimento na avaliação de implantação de projeto de mecanismo de desenvolvimento limpo em uma empresa de cerâmica vermelha

A evolução da teoria de precificação de opções considera um conjunto de ferramentas necessárias para gerenciar e explorar o valor advindo da incerteza e da volatilidade que ampliam os parâmetros da geração de valor ao acrescentarem os conceitos de flexibilidade gerencial. Dentro deste contexto, o presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar economicamente a implantação do Mecanismo de Desenvolvimento Limpo em uma empresa de cerâmica vermelha localizada no Arranjo Produtivo de São Miguel do Guamá, nordeste do Pará. A avaliação pretendeu demonstrar o valor da flexibilidade gerencial de Diferimento conforme adaptações realizadas na metodologia proposta por Copeland & Antikarov (2001), a qual adiciona à avaliação tradicional de fluxo de caixa descontado a Opção Real – OR – que a pesquisa considerou; e que fundamentou-se por meio de revisão de literatura para formulação do método. Essa determinação seguiu um roteiro de etapas essenciais para a análise das variáveis que compreendem o modelo e que possibilitou a ordenação dos resultados quanto aos valores da OR considerada e do valor presente incluindo a flexibilidade gerencial; com a aplicação do método na empresa objeto da pesquisa. Finalmente, como resultado deste estudo conclui-se que a Teoria de Opções Reais por meio da Opção de Diferimento ou Adiamento contribui com informações que auxiliam nas decisões gerenciais de investimento em projetos quando comparados à metodologia tradicional de avaliação visto que são consideradas incertezas inerentes ao projeto, tal como o ambiente real.

Avaliação econômica de sistemas agroflorestais no nordeste paraense: os sistemas agroflorestais como instrumento de política pública de desenvolvimento socioeconômico e ambiental regional

Este trabalho tem como objetivo avaliar a viabilidade econômica de dois sistemas agroflorestais (SAF) no município de Tomé. Primeiro, procedeu-se o levantamento bibliográfico das imposições legais de uso de áreas especialmente protegidas; em seguida, buscou-se enquadrar os sistemas agroflorestais sobre uma ótica socioeconômico e ambiental, como um instrumento de uso e recuperação destas áreas através da avaliação dos retornos econômicos provenientes de dois modelos de SAF observados em Tomé-Açu. Para o andamento e conclusão deste estudo, utilizou-se uma pesquisa documental, bibliográfica e de pesquisa de campo através de entrevistas com atores locais da cadeia produtiva no município de Tomé-Açú. A metodologia utilizada para levantamento de dados do estudo foi a entrevista semiestruturada com os atores locais. A tabulação deste dados, bem como a análise dos resultados foi realizada com os conceitos econômico-matemáticos da engenharia econômica de avaliação de projetos de investimento através do fluxo de caixa, VPL, TIR e Rb/c dos arranjos. A conclusão aborda o conceito da viabilidade dos arranjos estudados para o cenário econômico atual das culturas que compuseram os modelos estudados como fonte alternativa de investimento.

Análise de investimento em confinamento bovino no centro-oeste brasileiro: um estudo de caso.

This study analyzed the economic viability of an investment in feedlot cattle on a farm in the midsize state of Goias. The research identified that different thematic studies whose interests have focused mainly on cost analysis and profitability punctual. Differently, this study used the approaches of the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) and the Real Options Theory (ROT). The first used the projected cash flow for 10 years and a discount rate determined by CAPM at 8% p.a. for containment of heads 400. The second was modeled by the binomial model of Cox, Ross and Rubinstein (1979) incorporating the option of waiting. This methodology has not been employed in Brazilian cattle industry. The search results pointed to the economic viability of the project when considered possible scenarios for the different price ranges of the ox that state bushel. In addition, the TOR proved to be a more robust tool for investment analysis, by incorporating the flexibility of farmers to wait for the right time to make the confinement.

Análise econômica da criação de tambaqui em tanques-rede: estudo de caso em assentamento da reforma agrária

Aquaculture is a crucial source of income and livelihood for millions of people around the world. Most fish farms require technical knowledge expertise and qualified staff. This research was developed in Santa Felicidade Settlement Project Cocalzinho de Goias city - GO, where a substantial part of the settlers by INCRA are exploring subsistence farming activities. After meeting open to the 76 settler's families, those who joined the project received courses on intensive farming of tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) in net cages. The production was an innovative technique, fully realized with the participatory labor of family members, without prejudice of the main activities. The economic analysis showed the return on invested capital in 7.5 years within the financial activity with 7.1% Internal Return Rate higher than the average interest rate market. The Net Cash Flow showed ability to fulfill financial obligations from the second year. The implementation of more productive cycles optimizes the workforce with increased operational efficiency. Diet alternatively produced with local ingredients can minimize the effects of critical variables of the project, since it does not affect productivity.

Análise do processo de implementação do inovar-auto

In 2008 the United States had suffered from a financial crisis due to the real estate market, this movement affected other countries whose economy depends on the USA. Brazil suffered this crisis, but to avoid a greater turmoil in national territory the government launched some public policies to allow the market to keep working, that way allowing a cash flow more stable. One of these policies is called Inovar-Auto where automakers get benefits in form of taxes redution since some investiments are made in tecnology in Brazil made. This study does a qualitative reaserch to identify how companies are adapting to the Inovar-Auto, its dificulties and the real benefits trough colected data along these years

Investment theory and empirical approach: a discussion on dificulties

In this paper, we analyse several contributions made concerning investment theory in the last decades. The objective of the paper is to discuss the difficulties of the testable theory identified by Chirinko (1983), Fazzari et al. (1988, 2000), Kaplan and Zingales (1997) and Hubbard (1998) to better understand the results of empirical approach. These few authors we worked with provided theoretical arguments and empirical evidences that internal finance variable of the firms may work as an indicator of financial constraint. In several developed countries, financing constraints has been identified as important to understand the investment spending. The principal indicator of financing constraints, that is, cash-flow has been questioned. However, the evidences offer a support to its relevance. We try to justify such evidence based on the few authors listed above, which have been quoted by empirical works. We try to contribute to debate adding aspect of the corporate finance to offer a logical explanation to econometric difficulties.

Aplicação do valor presente ajustado (APV) para avaliação do fluxo de caixa de uma empresa do setor automotivo no sistema inovar auto

The automobile industry shows relevance inside the Brazilian industrial scenario since it contributes with the development of a significant chain of supply, distributors, workshops, publicity agencies and insurance companies in the internal market, aside from being one of the five biggest worldwide market. Thereby, the federal government decreed in Dec, 17th 2012 by Law nº 12.715 the Inovar-Auto Program. As the Adjusted Present Value (APV) is highly recommended, although not yet widespread to public politics of tax reduction, this work intends to apply the APV method on the cash flow analysis of an automobile sector's company, which has recently installed in national territory and wants to rely with governmental incentives proposed by Inovar-Auto Program. The developed work evaluates the company's current cash flow stochastically from mathematical modeling of variables such as price, demand and interest rate through probability distributions with the assist of Crystal Ball software, a Microsoft Excel Add-in, generating different scenarios from Monte Carlo Simulation. As results probabilities situations have been evaluated until the end of the Inovar-Auto's conducted period, in 2017. Beside APV others indicator such as Internal Rate of Return (IRR) and payback period were estimated for the investment project. For APV a sampling distribution with only 0.057% of risk, IRR of 29% were obtained and estimated project payback period was 4.13 years

Estudo da viabilidade de implantação do INOVAR-AUTO utilizando o método do fluxo de caixa sob risco

The automobile industry has a growing importance in the Brazilian economic environment. The industry moves a huge chain that encompasses manufacturers, suppliers of raw materials, auto parts dealers, gas stations, insurance companies, repair shops, tire stores, media companies, advertising agencies, among others.

The specific purpose of this study, a simulation for discussion of the viability of the program implementation using the Monte Carlo Simulation combined with the Cash-Flow-at-Risk was performed. To this end, an exploratory and documentary literature on the subject was held as well as a case study in a automobile company of Japanese origin

Using Nebraska's Beginning Farmer Tax Credit Program

Many farm or ranch families that are attempting to bring a son or daughter back into their business experience a strain on the cash flow. Recent changes to Nebraska's Beginning Farmer Tax Credit Program provide an attractive incentive that can be very beneficial to those families. Regulation changes made in 2008 now allow parents to rent agricultural assets to their own children.

Using Nebraska’s Beginning Farmer Tax Credit Program

Many farm or ranch families that are attempting to bring a son or daughter back into their business experience a strain on the cash flow. After all, a business that has been providing enough income for one family to live on, must now not only generate adequate income for the parents living expenses, but also attempt to provide enough income for a second family, the successor. Recent changes to Nebraska’s Beginning Farmer Tax Credit Program provide an attractive incentive that can be very beneficial for family farming/ranching operations that are trying to bring a family member back into their business. Regulation changes made in 2008 now allow parents to rent agricultural assets to their own children.

The Influence of MGA and PG600 on the Out of Season Reproductive Performance of Ewes

Seasonal lamb supply has been established as one of the major hindrances to the American sheep industry. The ability to consistently lamb ewes on an accelerated production system offers additional benefits of reduced maintenance costs, more uniform cash flow along with reduced labor and facility demands. Previous work at McNay with spring breeding indicated that light priming rams regardless of genetic base improved conception rates, however, MGA feeding postweaning gave inconsistent and sometimes depressed reproductive activity in ewes. This study was conducted to evaluate the use of MGA in late lactation and a single PG600 injection at weaning, either individually or in combination.
