Cost model

  • P(0), the price in the reference year 0
  • nr(0), the relative accumulated volume in year 0,
  • ∆T , the time for the accumulated volume to grow

from 10 % to 90 %,

  • K , the learning curve coefficient.

Sensitivity Analysis

  • What if…?
  • Approach

– select the most critical input parameters – establish boundaries for their variation with a « 95% confidence interval »

  • Results

– impact on NPV

  • at boundary input parameter values: new NPV
  • sensitivity factor: how NPV varies (slope at base value)

– impact on IRR

  • at boundary input parameter values: new IRR
  • sensitivity factor: slope at base value, although variation usually non

linear

Risk Analysis

  • Input:

– Uncertainty in market parameters

  • Market share
  • Broadband services characteristics

– Uncertainty in Cost parameters

  • Cost units
  • Cost evolution
  • Area characteristics
  • Outputs:

Conclusions LBS Case

  • Acceptable business opportunities
  • LBS can still be an attractive opportunity for

companies with or without telecom background

  • Payback period of 5 to 6 years, with a yearly ARPU of
  • ver than 27€ for more enthusiastic testbeds
  • Worst-case scenario

– Risk analysis evaluation shows that almost 30% of the project cases could have significant profits and 70% of them remain positive – The uncertainty level is high mainly relating to the LBS penetration and market share

  • One-year delay of this project could be reasonable in
  • rder to answer some critical questions
