Use the simulated returns to calculate the ending portfolio values. 3. Make sure that Random Values (Monte Carlo) under Setting is selected. This would allow random numbers to be generated every time the spreadsheet is refreshed. 2. Simulate 1000 iterations of the two strategies over the six-year period.

DIAGEO PLC 1. What do you think about the capital structure policies Diageo has pursued in the past. Do they make sense? How does it compare to Diageo’s competitors’ policies? Which competitors would make for the best comparison? 2. Why is Diageo selling Pillsbury and spinning off Burger King? How might value be created through these transactions? 3. Based on the results of the simulation model‚ what recommendations would you make for Diageo’s capital structure? Does the model capture all of the

Computer Simulation * A software program that runs on any computer that attempts to simulate some phenomenon based on a scientist’s conceptual and mathematical understanding of the given phenomenon. * The scientist’s conceptual understanding is reduced to an algorithmic or mathematical logic‚ which is then programmed in one of many programming languages (Fortran‚ C‚ C++‚ etc.) and compiled to produce a binary code that runs on a computer. * Have become a useful part of modeling

The methodology is based on a broad literature review of risk management in construction and the company’s internal documents and policies. By using the Monte Carlo simulation technique‚ simulation of risks in completed infrastructural projects will be performed. This project will involve the performance of Monte Carlo simulations on two accomplished infrastructural projects. A Monte Carlo simulation is a problem solving technique used to approximate the probability of certain outcomes by running multiple trial runs

1. How has Diageo managed its capital structure? Do you agree it is conservative? Diageo was born as the result of merging Grand Metropolitan plc and Guinness plc. Since the beginning the newly formed company maintained conservative financial policies inherited from the two parent companies; and in general from the British financial management style. There are many indications that confirm that Diageo has managed its capital structure using a conservative approach. Firstly‚ it is worth mentioning
