Sensitivity Analysis

EEma8y ago
Sir , To determine sensitivity analysis there are two methods: One is to determine the %age change in a project variable which results in a -NPV to my understanding that means IRR. (If I am not wrong) The other method determines the %age change in NPV which results from a fixed %age change can u please explain me this with an example. Thank you.

Sensitivity is calculated as the NPV divided by the PV of the flows that are changing. I explain this, with examples, in my free lectures on investment appraisal under uncertainty. The lectures are a complete free course for Paper F9 and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.
