Consider the case: General Forge and Foundry Co. is considering = three-year project that will require an initial investment of $44,000. If market demand is strong, General Forge and Foundry Co. thinks that the project will generate cash flows of $28,500 per year. However, if market demand is weak, the company believes that the project will generate cash flows of only $1,500 per year. The company thinks that there is a 50% chance that demand will be strong and a 50% chance that demand will be weak. If the company uses a project cost of capital of 14%, what will be the expected net present value (NPV) of this project?
