In order tomaintain their competitive position in the marketplace Acme Group needs to continually look foropportunities to invest in new technologies. The Chief Information Officer, Jane Porter, is currentlyconsidering twelve technology proposals put forth by three divisions within the Group Marketing, RD,and HR.A number of the proposals are for joint projects, to be undertaken with partner organisations which AcmeGroup has well-established strategic alliances.Each division has provided Jane with the capital expenditures required for each project over the next threeyears and, based on the expected revenue to be generated by each project, the NPV of each project as shownbelow, and the ownership %.Projectno.Division Ownership%Capital expenditure* ($M) NPV* ($M)Year 1 Year 2 Year 31 Marketing 100% 2.5 1.0 1.0 0.62 Marketing 33% 5.0 3.0 3.0 1.83 Marketing 50% 1.0 2.0 4.0 0.84 Marketing 100% 7.5 5.0 3.0 3.15 Marketing 75% 2.0 4.0 8.0 2.26 RD 50% 10.0 3.0 3.0 1.87 RD 100% 7.5 7.5 3.0 4.18 RD 100% 8.0 7.0 6.0 2.89 RD 67% 4.0 6.0 8.0 3.810 HR 100% 1.0 2.0 4.0 1.011 HR 50% 7.0 5.0 3.0 2.612 HR 100% 15.0 4.0 4.0 3.4*The capital expenditures And NPV for each project are subject to the ownership %. For example, should project 5 be funded, capitalexpenditures for the Acme Group will amount to 75% of the stated figures, or $1.5M, $3.0M, and $6.0M over the three years, for anNPV of $1.65M. The other quarter of the expenditures will be funded by a strategic ally, which will be entitled to quarter of thestated NPV. By contrast, the Acme Group will provide 100% of the required capital expenditures for project 1, for a NPV of $0.6M.The CEO, Edgar Burroughs, after Consulting with the Chief Financial Officer, John Clayton, has given Jane anoverall three-year budget of $100 million for the set of projectsshe approves, with a maximum of $40 millionavailable in any one year.Jane has now tasked you with developing a spreadsheet‐based decision model that can use to explore thetwelve investment alternatives and their associated risks.As a starting point, she wants you to develop a spreadsheet model using the Deterministic model worksheetprovided in the assignment spreadsheet. This worksheet has four sections: Inputs, Decisions, Calculatedvalues, and Summary values and Outputs.Jane wants the spreadsheet To automatically update all tables and results each time she the enters 0s and1s in cells O26:O37. In that way, so can see the results for any set of projects that she wants to considerfunding.MIS275 Decision Analytics Assignment 2 Trimester 2, 2020 Page 3The information that Jane is particularly interested in is the following:1. Number of projects undertaken in each division2. Capital expenditures ($M) – company wide and by division. Jane also wants to see the calculatedvalues in cells P26:AA37, in case she needs to see a full breakdown of capital expenditure.3. Whether any expenditure limits are exceeded.4. Table of ROI by project. Jane prefers to compare percentages rather than absolute numbers. For thisreason, she wants you to divide each of the project NPVs through by the total capital expenditurefor each project and report the ROI percentage.When you have completed the deterministic decision model, Jane wants you to use this as the basis fordeveloping a spreadsheet-based stochastic decision model in the other worksheet.In this Stochastic model worksheet, she wants you to apply triangular distributions to each capitalexpenditure and to each NPV.Jane wants you to treat all of the capital expenditures in the page 2 table as the most likely values. Jane thenwants you to set the minimum and maximum values at 15% below and 30% above the most likely values, tocounter the common bias of under-estimating costs.She also wants you to treat all of NPVs in the page 2 table as the most likely values. She then wants theminimum and maximum values set at 20% below and 15% above the most likely values, to counter thecommon bias of over-estimating the NPV.Once you have completed the development of your Stochastic model, Jane wants you to do somepreliminary analysis for her.She wants you to consider three sets of projects that satisfy the four budget constraints and look promisingin terms of total NPV. Her one stipulation is that each set must include at least project from each division.She wants you to perform a comparative analysis of the three sets and write up your findings in a report. Inparticular she wants you to Provide a clear analysis of the risks faced with each the three sets of projects.MIS275 Decision Analytics Assignment 2 Trimester 2, 2020 Page 4Your submission will be assessed across these six sections for a total unit mark of 30%:Section 1: Model description, conceptual model, and assumptions (File: MS Word; 5 marks) Provide a brief overview of the model Include a conceptual model Note any relevant assumptions.Section 2: Spreadsheet-based deterministic decision model (Files: MS Word Excel; 5 marks)Complete all parts of the spreadsheet-based deterministic decision model. All cells displaying calculatedvalues, summary values and output values must contain the underlying Excel formulas.Section 3: Scenario analysis (Files: MS Word Excel; 5 marks)This section relates to Topic 7. Use Excels scenario analysis to investigate the impact that best and worstscenarios, for both capital expenditure and NPV, have on the summary values and output values. The choiceof best and worst scenarios is yours.Section 4: Spreadsheet-based stochastic decision model including justification for the choice ofdistribution (Files: MS Word Excel; 5 marks)This section relates to Topic 8. Complete all parts of the spreadsheet-based stochastic decision model.Justify the choice of probability distribution.Section 5: Simulated output distribution and a risk analysis (Files: MS Word Excel; 5 marks)This section relates to Topic 9. This requires you to undertake a risk analysis based on simulation modelling,in order to quantify the Risks associated with problem.Section 6: Report (File: MS Word; 5 marks)The report should be a standalone document. It should include:1. A brief description of the stochastic model (maximum 100 words)2. The conceptual model and any assumptions behind the model.3. The deterministic decision model copied from the spreadsheet.4. The best- and Worst-case scenarios chosen, and a discussion of the consequences.5. The stochastic decision model copied from the spreadsheet.6. Justification for the choice of probability distribution.7. Risk analysis report based on the simulation modelling.MIS275 – Decision Analytics Assignment 2 Trimester 2, 2020 Page 5Rubric for Assignment 2Performance LevelsCriteriaYET TO ACHIEVE MINIMUM STANDARD MEETS STANDARD EXCEEDS STANDARDPoor (0‐49) Satisfactory (50‐59) Good (60‐69) Very good (70‐79) Excellent (80‐100) FormatModel description,conceptual Model,and assumptionsULO1/GLO1Total: 5 marks0Conceptual modelis inappropriate ornot clearlyoutlined1.5A vague conceptualmodel is given, withseveral modelling errors2.5An appropriate conceptualmodel is given.
