The pinnacle of all of the course. Overall, the structure is very well established from course 1-4 in the specialization.

Great course. This one really had so much to learn and helped in getting the big picture on risk and returns.
À partir de la leçon
Addressing financial reality with real options analysis
This week we describe how standard NPV analysis might lead to incorrect decisions when we fail to account for the impact of (or upon) firm flexibility. We then describe the three most common types of real options that firms face in practice and then explain how decision trees might be used to arrive at an approximation of the value of the real option that is embedded within a project. We conclude by considering empirical evidence on the take-up of real options analysis and discuss the situations in which real options analysis might most be needed.
