Introduction

2

Laboratory personnel are periodically confronted with complex decisions such as buy versus lease, add a new test to the menu or bring a reference test in-house. Such decisions are often made with simple models that do not adequately capture risk, incorporate alternative courses of action, or allow for sequential decisions that evolve over time. As a result, decision makers often obtain suboptimal results.

In this webinar, cutting edge techniques that incorporate risk, facilitate the comparison of multiple alternatives, and provide insight into common laboratory decisions will be presented. Attendees will receive training in building financial models using Microsoft Excel and Palisade Decision Tools, a popular add-in.

Participants will learn to use decision trees and simulation models and then apply their knowledge to analyze whether to perform a test in house or send it to a reference laboratory.

Financial Models

10

• Always wrong

• Sometimes useful

Examples of “Wrong” Models

11

• Ideal gas laws

• Newtonian fluids

• Laws of motion (ignore friction, point masses)

• Perfect competition

How are models useful?

12

• Eliminate bad ideas

• Provide insight

o Relationships between variables

o Uncertainty

• Provide predictions

o Don’t need to be perfect

o “fit for use”

The Question:

How can we apply this theory to a realistic laboratory scenario?

29

The Answer:

Create a realistic scenario.

30

Page 11: Financial Models for Laboratory Decision Making 3 2015 · PDF fileFinancial Models for Laboratory Decision Making ... Build a financial model using a sales forecast and ... Financial

The Scenario: Build a financial model using a sales forecast and five-year proforma to determine the rate at which the laboratory sales team will capture the attainable market

The Process:

31

• Define inputs for sales forecast• Identify sources of uncertainty in sales forecast• Develop 5-year forecast and financial projections• Evaluate net present value• Analyze one-way sensitivity analysis: Tornado Diagram• Analyze two-way sensitivity analysis: Strategy Map

32

Sales Forecast requires five inputs• Total Available Market (TAM)• Attainable Market Share (AMS)• Current Market Share (CMS)• Sales Rate per person year (SRPY)• Number of sales persons (N)
