Omschrijving
Samenvatting:In this work we assess, from an economic and financial perspective, the optimal time of timberharvest in joint forestry-pasture systems. For this we apply a Real Options (RO) approach as a tool ofstrategic decision making. It assumes a stochastic process of price projections and is compared with thepresent value (NPV) computed on the basis of a fixed rate all along the project. The results obtained bymeans of the RO approach recommend cutting at 18 years with a ROV (Real Options Valuation) of $AR1 088 339 (ARG) against the alternative NPV assessment that recommends cutting at 11 years andyields $AR 511 914.
