Question:
Refer to the table developed in Problem 15.6 for University Health System. Assume the Managed Care Division is evaluating a project with the net cash flows and probabilities shown in the table below.
Assume the Managed Care Division has judged the project to have lower-than-average risk. Is the project financially attractive?
Problem 15.6
University Health System has three divisions: Real Estate, with an 8 percent cost of capital; Health Services, with a 10 percent cost of capital; and Managed Care, with a 12 percent cost of capital. The system’s risk adjustment procedures call for adding 3 percentage points to adjust for high risk and subtracting 2 percentage points for low risk. Construct a diagram such as the one in Exhibit 15.8 that illustrates the range of project costs of capital for the system.
