Abstract
"A computerized means for analyzing the profitability and purchase potential of producing oil and gas properties was developed. LOTUS 1- 2-3, a computerized spreadsheet package, was utilized in this development. The basic input data required for the implementation of the purchase estimator (BUYOUT) are the forecasts of production, price, and expense. BUYOUT itself is composed of three separate, but interactive, parts: and the system macro. the profitability model, the acquisition table,
A before federal income tax cash-flow model and several economic indicators constitute the profitability model. The profitability model is then fully interactive with an acquisition table which contains six different acquisition criteria that are in current use. These acquisition criteria are a unique mix of historical, economic, and industry acquisition standards. All of the interactions between the engineer, the input data, the profitability model, and the acquisition table are accomplished via a system macro. The macro is a program that couples the powers of LOTUS 1-2-3 and BUYOUT. examples of BUYOUT are also presented"-- Abstract, p. ii
