问题如下:
What is the NPV (C$ millions) of the optimal set of investment decisions for Bouchard Industries including the production-flexibility option?
选项:
A. –C$6.34 million
B. C$7.43 million
C. C$7.43 million
解释:
B is correct. The additional NPV of adding shifts if demand is “high” is
If demand is low, the production-flexibility option will not be exercised. The
optimal decision is to add shifts only if demand is high.
Because the production-flexibility option is exercised only when demand is
high, which happens 50% of the time, the expected present value of adding
shifts is
NPV = 0.50(26.18) = C$13.09 million.
The total NPV of the initial project and the production-flexibility option is
NPV = –C$5.66 million + C$13.09 million = C$7.43 million.
The option to add shifts, handled optimally, adds sufficient value to make this a
positive-NPV project.
