Consider a project with free cash flows in one year of $ 137 557 in a weak market or $ 175 472 in a strong market, with each outcome being equally likely. The initial investment required for the project is $ 105 000, and theproject's unlevered cost of capital is 22 %. The risk-free interest rate is 8 % (Assume no taxes or distress costs.)

The initial investment required for the project is $105 000, and the project's unlevered cost of capital is 22%. The risk-free interest rate is 8%. (Assume no taxes or distress costs.) a. What is the NPV of this project? b. Suppose that to raise the funds for the initial investment, the project is sold to investors as an all-equity firm. The equity holders will re the cash flows of the project in one year. How much money can be raised in this way that is, what is the initial market value of the unlevered equity? c. Suppose the initial $105 000 is instead raised by borrowing at the risk-free interest rate. What are the cash flows of the levered equity in a weak market and a strong market at the end of year 1, and what is its initial market value of the levered equity according to MM
