摘要 This study applies the real options approach to elucidate investment timing for venture capital companies. This analysis attempts to determine the optimal hitting time t* that makes the gross value of project at maturity time T of initial public offering. When this value discounted back to t* equals the expected variable cost invested at time t*. The venture capital company will then make a break even. Through numerical analysis, under situations of actual and expected discount rates, the optimal hitting time t* is shown as 1.58 years and 3.996 years, respectively. Project value is $0.51(million) and $2.02 (million), respectively. Furthermore, with an actual discount rate, determines that the function of optimal hitting time t* with speed of mean reversion a is monotonically decreasing. Conversely, with maturity time T, mean reversion level b and σ are monotonically increasing. By applying of expected discount rate, the function of optimal hitting time t* with σ, and speed of mean reversion a are both monotonically decreasing. Mean reversion level b is monotonically increasing with maturity time T. © Taru Publications.
