a) Kevin Chemicals has a new pharmaceutical project which requires an investment of $12 million over one year after which there is a 25% chance of aborting at zero extra cost and an 75% chance of further development over three years at a cost of a further $25 million. At this point you estimate a 50% chance of making net profit of $90 million, a 40% chance of making a net profit of $60 million and a 10% chance of making only $20 million. Your discount rate is 6%. Calculate the NPV given the assumptions in the question. Should you go ahead?

- Winters Corp. is considering a new product that would require an investment of $18 million now, at t = 0. If the new product is well received, then the project would produce after-tax cash flows of $9 million at the end of each of the next 3 years (t = 1, 2, 3), but if the market does not like the product, then the cash flows would be only $4 million per year. There is a 50% probability that the market will be good. The firm could delay the project for a year while it conducts a test to determine if demand is likely to be strong or weak, but it would have to incur costs to obtain this timing option. The project's cost and expected annual cash flows would be the same whether the project is delayed or not. The project's WACC is 11%. What is the value (in thousands) of the option to delay the project?You are evaluating a project that will cost $543,000, but is expected to produce cash flows of $127,000 per year for 10 years, with the first cash flow in one year.

- Feldman Corp. is considering a new product that would require an investment of $8 million at t = 0. If the new product is well received, then the project would produce after-tax cash flows of $3.4 million at the end of each of the next 3 years (t = 1, 2, 3), but if the market did not like the product, then the cash flows would be only $1.85 million per year. There is a 65% probability that the market will be good. Foltz Corp. could delay the project for a year while it conducted a test to determine if demand would be strong or weak. The project's cost and expected annual cash flows are the same whether the project is delayed or not; however, the timing of the cash flows would change. (There would be the same number of cash flows—only the cash flows would be extended out one extra year.) The project's WACC is 10%. What is the value of the project after considering the investment timing option? a. $144,867.15 b. $269,039.00 c. $357,188.00 d. $413,906.15 e. $455,296.77Your company is considering a project that has an up-front cost at Year 0 of $500,000 and a cost of capital of 8 percent. The project's subsequent cash flows are uncertain. There is a 70 percent chance that the project will be successful and generate a cash flow of $250,000 at the end of each of the next ten years (Years 1-10), while there is a 30 percent chance that the project will not be successful and will only generate cash flows of $30,000 over each of the next five years (Years 1-5). As you can calculate, the net present value of taking on the project today (Year 0) is $710,198.64. If your company delays taking on the project for one year (takes it on at Year 1), it can determine whether the cash flows will be $250,000 for the next ten years (Years 2-11), or $30,000 for the next five years (Years 2-6) by doing additional market research. Unfortunately, the market research, penalties for contract delays, and inflation, will raise the price of taking on this project to $550,000 at…JBL Inc. is considering a new product that would require an after-tax investment of $1,400,000 at t = 0.

The equipment will be depreciated straight line over 6 years to a value of zero, but in fact it can be sold after 6 years for $694,000. The firm believes that working capital at each date must be maintained at a level of 10% of next year's forecast sales. The firm estimates production costs equal to $2.00 per trap and believes that the traps can be sold for $8 each. Sales forecasts are given in the following table. The project will come to an end in 6 years, when the trap becomes technologically obsolete. The firm's tax bracket is 35%, and the required rate of return on the project is 10%.
