The document discusses concepts related to financial risk management and sensitivity analysis, including calculating net present value and the sensitivity of different factors in investment projects.

Sensitivity analysis calculates how much a change in one factor would impact the net present value of a project, showing which factors the profitability depends on most.

It analyzes the sensitivity of project cost, annual cash inflow or savings, and running costs, as these factors influence whether an investment project will be profitable or not based on its net present value.

(b) Calculation of minimum volume of sales per annum required to justify the project
At break-even, the NPV would be zero. Taking the cost of the equipment and its residual value, the
minimum required PV of annual cash profit would be as under:
PV of capital outlay
PV of residual value
PV of actual cash profit required for NPV of 0

(a) Sensitivity for Project Cost


If the project cost is increased by P1,112, the NPV of the project will become zero. Therefore, the sensitivity
for project cost is:
P1,112
P12,000

100

9.27%

(b) Sensitivity for Annual Cash Inflow


If the present value of annual cash inflow is lower by P1,112, the NPV of the project will become zero.
Therefore, the sensitivity for annual cash flow is:
P1,112
P13,112

Analysis:
The cash inflow is more sensitive, since only 8.5% change in cash inflow will make the NPV of the project
zero.

(a) Sensitivity for Plant Cost


If the purchase cost of plant increases by P5,615, the NPV of the project will become zero. Therefore, the
sensitivity for plant cost is:
P5,615
P70,000

100

8.02%

(b) Sensitivity for Running Cost


If the present value of running cost increases by P5,615, the NPV of the project will become zero.
Therefore, the sensitivity for running cost is:
P5,615
P39,950

100

14.06%

(c) Sensitivity for Savings


If the savings decrease by P5,615, the NPV becomes zero. Therefore, the sensitivity for savings is:
P5,615
P115,565

100

4.86%

Analysis: Savings is the most sensitive.
