Goats: The Green Alternative (C)
內容大綱
The operator of a dairy farm in Tennessee has begun renting goats for landscaping (see Goats: The Green Alternative (A) 9B11B018). The business proved successful so he considered expanding the operation (see Goats: The Green Alternative (B) 9B11B025). Now, he consults with a statistician to learn how to incorporate uncertainty into the decision about expanding. The case incorporates three types of uncertainty into a spreadsheet analysis of the expansion decision and then uses Monte Carlo analysis to produce an array of outcomes from the capital budgeting process.
學習目標
This case can be used in managerial accounting courses. It gives students an opportunity to incorporate uncertainty into a spreadsheet that was prepared in Goats: The Green Alternative (B). The (C) case can be used by itself if students are already familiar with the principles of internal rate of return and net present value and the instructor provides the electronic spreadsheets that give the underlying calculations.
