Information about the cash flows for a four-year LO8 financial project are listed in the following table. The cash flows are assumed to follow a triangular distribution. The cost of implementing the project is expected to be between $60,000 and $70,000, with all values in this range being equally likely. Analysis of changes in the Consumer Price Index suggests that the annual rate of inflation can be approximated with a normal distribution with a mean of 4 percent and standard deviation of 1.5 percent. The organization’s required rate of return is 20 percent. Develop a model in CB to analyze this situation and answer the following questions.

Year Minimum Most Likely Maximum Inflow Inflow Inflow 1 $15,000 $20,000 $30,000 2 $20,000 $25,000 $35,000 3 $20,000 $30,000 $35,000 4 $40,000 $50,000 $60,000
