This paper gives an overview of simulation based procedures, which have proved to be efficient in valuing American options and therefore real options. Many of them integrate sequential stochastic simulations in the backward recursive programming approach to determine the early-exercise frontier....

The probability that actors in economic relationships break rules increases with the profits they thus expect to earn. It decreases with the probability and level of short - and long-term losses resulting from disclosure. It also decreases with the level of social context factors and intrinsic...

In this paper we price a precipitation option based on empirical weather data from Germanyusing different pricing methods, among them the burn analysis, index value simulation anddaily simulation. For that purpose we develop a daily precipitation model. Moreover, a decorrelationanalysis is...

Spätestens seit Erscheinen des viel zitierten Buches „Investment under Uncertainty“ von Dixitund Pindyck (1994) erfährt die neue Investitionstheorie (synonym: Realoptionstheorie) großeAufmerksamkeit. Neben theoretischen Weiterentwicklungen und Verfeinerungen wird dieRealoptionstheorie in...

In diesem Beitrag wird eine Niederschlagsoption unter Anwendung der Burn-Analysis, der Index-Value-Simulation und der Daily-Simulation bewertet. Dazu wird auf der Grundlage empirischer Wetterdaten aus Deutschland (Niederschlagsmengen aus Brandenburg) ein Tagesniederschlagsmodell entwickelt....
