Valuation of capital investment projects is a difficult task for many companies, especially for those whose cash flows depend on commodity prices. The level of uncertainty in commodity prices has a significant impact in determining the proper timing for an investment. Traditional valuation methods, which do not take into account managerial flexibility or project uncertainty modeling can lead to non-optimal decisions. This research develops a dynamic model that considers these variables, and uses implied binomial trees adjusted by other indicators of risk, such as project return s skewness and kurtosis. The level of uncertainty can not only be measured by the project return s volatility, but also by how probable is the occurrence of a low or negative result in the project. The magnitude of this probability could be assessed by knowing the project return s skewness and kurtosis. To model the project s behavior, this dissertation presents two kinds of implied binomial trees, recombining and non-recombining trees. Each tree has its own specific approach to determining the value of the project, including options or managerial flexibility. An applied case is presented considering a mining project. The results suggest that the level of skewness helps to have a better measure of project risk, which combined with the real option approach, allows capturing the value of project managerial flexibilities; which is an important contribution of the proposed model in this dissertation.
