Abandonment and Expansion In the previous problem, 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 were a success. This implies that if the project is a success, projected sales after expansion will be 18,000. Again assuming that success and failure are equally likely, what is the NPV of the project? Note that abandonment is still an option if the project is a failure. What is the value of the option to expand? LO.1
