Market Return Calculation
The average daily return is 0.13%, monthly return is 4% and the yearly return -1.18437.
The stock is selected for investment after analyzing the return that the stock gives in short, medium and long term. The risk associated with the stock is compared with the return it offers and based on the comparison of the risk and return the shares are selected. In this stock, the risk associated with the stock is low but the return associated with the stock is significantly low in daily and yearly. Therefore based on this evaluation it can be said that investment should not be made in the stock of Australian pharmaceutical industry (Thow et al., 2015).
The investment should be diversified so all the money should not be invested in one stock. In order to reduce the overall risk it is advised that the investor should diversify investment and make a balanced portfolio. This can be done by making investment in different types of instruments that have different level of risk. The risk taking ability of the investor should be assessed so that investment can be made in the appropriate securities (Butlin, 2013).

The sensitivity analysis studies the uncertainty of output due to variability of the inputs. In the given case, the output is net present value and it is analyzed in terms of different output. The sensitivity analysis helps to identify the most sensitive factor. The analysis shows that the net present value is most sensitive to the cost of capital.
The scenario analysis shows the performance in the best case and the worst-case scenario. In the given case, a scenario analysis conducted by determine the Net present value in the two scenario of the cost of capital. In the best-case scenario, the cost of capital is taken as 10% and it is seen in that case the NPV of the project is $37498.83. In the worst case scenario the cost of capital is taken as 14% and the NPV of the project in such case is $29836.23. The table below shows the scenario analysis:
