Exercise Expected Value


You are the proposed project manager for the construction of a new electric power plant using solar
thermal technology.
technology This power plant is designed to last 10 years.
years Expenses to construct the plant are
estimated to be $100 million, but you have identified a 10 percent chance of litigation by
environmental groups during this 10-year period over land use that could add $20 million to the cost
of construction. Over the p
plants useful life,, the electricityy ggenerated is expected
p
to p
produce $40
million each year in revenue. However, you have several industry and Department of Energy reports
indicating that increased demand for power and dwindling baseload supply have a 25 percent chance
of causing electricity prices to rise, so you could realize additional revenues of $10 million per year
off operation.
i
P i ll offsetting
Partially
ff i that
h goodd news is
i a 40 percent chance
h
that
h the
h county will
ill raise
i reall
estate taxes for industrial land use that significantly affects natural habitats of certain wildlife
species. This raise in taxes could potentially reduce your revenues by $2 million per year. In
addition there is a 25 percent chance,
addition,
chance per year of operation,
operation of a fire caused by reflection from
heliostats, which would reduce your revenue by $1 million in any year in which such a fire occurs.
Insurance could be purchased to fully protect you from such losses for $250,000 per year. Other
mishaps already are covered by a blanket insurance policy included in the base operating costs.
Operational and maintenance costs to run the plant are expected to be $10 million a year.
Decommissioning costs at the end of the 10-year life would be $35 million (real current dollars).
Your government affairs division estimates that there is a 35 percent chance that increased
environmental requirements will be passed by the end of 10 years,
years so the decommissioning costs
actually could be $5 million higher.
