Description
1. INTRODUCTION During the last thirty years many scientists worked on the problem of risk level measurement through the beta coefficient. Papers on beta released by Hamada (1972) and Rubinstein (1973) resulted in a wider application of the beta and induced new discussions about its applicability. The main purpose of this study is to define the possibility of using beta in terms of risk level quantification in cases of the start-up business's project as well as the project that presents new business activity for the investor. The importance of defining beta coefficient in these cases is reflected in determination of the project's cost of capital in evaluating justification of project financing. The problem is that, in concerned cases, it may not be possible to estimate the project's risk level without the difficulties in the beta calculation and its ways of solution are the subject of this paper. Due to the above-mentioned, the authors expect to find the optimal way to calculate project's risk level, depending on the project's characteristics. For risk level quantification in concerned cases we will propose the Pure Play method, the Hamada formula and the Accounting beta technique, which can provide solution for described difficulties that occur in risk level measurement and lead to more accurate result of analysis.
