  • Conclusiones
    CONCLUSIONES 166 CONCLUSIONES De acuerdo a los datos compilados en el análisis de los resultados obtenidos, es oportuno establecer las conclusiones para cada uno de los objetivos establecidos en esta investigación; considerando que el conocimiento claro de los objetivos planteados para el diseño del sistema de telefonía básica facilita las labores de diseño asociadas al proceso investigativo. En tal sentido, para el diseño del sistema se aprovecha la infraestructura instalada actualmente, brindando los mismos servicios prestados a las redes móviles y básicas rurales. A partir de los fundamentos obtenidos de la empresa INFONET, se estableció para el sistema, la probabilidad de bloqueo (Pb) de 0.015; lo cual implica que el 1.5% de las llamadas que se generen no podrán ser atendidas en la hora pico. Además, se considera para la operación del sistema, el modelo Erlang B (las llamadas bloqueadas abandonan el sistema), en treinta y cinco (35) mE. En la fase de diseño del sistema se estudiaron tres (03) perfiles tecnológicos, de los cuales se seleccionó el sistema AS-300, en razón de la notable capacidad que posee para transmitir una taza de datos para canales de voz de cincuenta y seis (56) Kbps, para código sesenta y cuatro (64) Kbps, y para códigos ADPCM de treinta y dos (32) Kbps. Como parte de la misma fase, se planificó la red con un margen de reserva para el manejo de tráfico, en el 167 cual la capacidad de manejo del sistema esta siempre por encima de lo requerido por las dimensiones del tráfico actual, a los fines de prever cualquier crecimiento rápido e inesperado de usuarios.

In Latin America, there are still some deficiencies in this regard which result in many people experiencing high latencies in their connections. The main reason for these latencies is the lack of local interconnection between different network operators, which means that traffic between nearby countries must often use distant Internet exchange points, located in the United States or Europe. The deployment of various Internet exchange points (IXPs) has helped improve this situation, although the actual status of connectivity between countries and networks remains a mystery. To find answers to these unknowns, some time ago LACNIC created Simón1, a project that seeks to generate information by measuring latency levels between countries and in this way estimate traffic volumes.

  • Telmex Y Cantv: De Administración, IESA Caracas, Venezuela ¿Cuál Es La Tasa De Descuento [email protected] Apropiada?
    Academia, Revista Latinoamericana de Administración, 44, 2010, 137-154. http://revistaacademia.cladea.org Carlos A. Molina Case study Instituto de Estudios Superiores TELMEX and CANTV: de Administración, IESA Caracas, Venezuela Which is the appropriate [email protected] discount rate? Miguel A. Santos Instituto de Estudios Superiores TELMEX y CANTV: de Administración, IESA Caracas, Venezuela ¿cuál es la tasa de descuento [email protected] apropiada? ABSTRACT This case study presents a dilemma situation on how to determine the discount rate for cash flows in places where the country risk perceived by investors differs considerably from the country’s sovereign debt premiums. Specifically, we present the case of TELMEX, the Mexican telecom corporation, valuing and presenting a bid offer for CANTV, the Venezuelan telecom corporation. Venezuelan capital markets and sovereign debt premiums have a lower correla- tion than those present in other Latin American and emerging markets. In this case and its study guide, we review the existing literature and propose a new and comprehensive methodology for the estimation of discount rates in the Venezuelan case, incorporating the difference in stock market volatilities into the country risk consideration. The proposed solution can be exported to other emerging markets with low correlations between their sovereign debt premiums and their internal capital markets. Key words: discount rate, cost of capital, cost of equity, country risk premium, sovereign debt, Latin America, cash flow valuation. This case study does not intend to make a value judgment on the acquisition offer made by Telmex for a block of Cantv shares, but, simply, to outline the Venezuelan situation as an investment scenario for an international company and to calculate the respective investment risk.
