We are examining a new project. We expect to sell 7,100 units per year at $56 net cash flow apiece for the next 10 years. In other words, the annual cash flow is projected to be $56 × 7,100 = $397,600. The relevant discount rate is 14 percent, and the initial investment required is $1,800,000. After the first year, the project can be dismantled and sold for $1,200,000. Suppose you think it is likely that expected sales will be revised upward to 10,800 units if the first year is a success and revised downward to 3,900 units if the first year is not a success. Suppose the scale of the project can be doubled in one year in the sense that twice as many units can be produced and sold. Naturally, expansion would be desirable only if the project is a success. This implies that if the project is a success, projected sales after expansion will be 21,600. Note that abandonment is still an option if the project is a failure. a. If success and failure are equally likely, what is the NPV of the project? Consider the possibility of abandonment in answering. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e. g., 32.16.)
b. What is the value of the option to abandon? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e. g., 32.16.)
a. NPV
b. Option value

< back to assignment attempts: 1 1 keep the highest: 1 / 2 2. determining opportunity cost juanita is deciding whether to buy a suit that she wants, as well as where to buy it. three stores carry the same suit, but it is more convenient for juanita to get to some stores than others. for example, she can go to her local store, located 15 minutes away from where she works, and pay a marked-up price of $102 for the suit: store travel time each way price of a suit (minutes) (dollars per suit) local department store 15 102 across town 30 88 neighboring city 60 65 juanita makes $42 an hour at work. she has to take time off work to purchase her suit, so each hour away from work costs her $42 in lost income. assume that returning to work takes juanita the same amount of time as getting to a store and that it takes her 30 minutes to shop. as you answer the following questions, ignore the cost of gasoline and depreciation of her car when traveling. complete the following table by computing the opportunity cost of juanita's time and the total cost of shopping at each location. store opportunity cost of time price of a suit total cost (dollars) (dollars per suit) (dollars) local department store 102 across town 88 neighboring city 65 assume that juanita takes opportunity costs and the price of the suit into consideration when she shops. juanita will minimize the cost of the suit if she buys it from the . grade it now save & continue continue without saving
