Esso is drilling an oil well. The drilling rig costs $840 today, and in one year the well is either a success or a failure. The outcomes are equally likely. The discount rate is 10%. The PV of the successful payoff at t=1 is $1,420. The PV of the unsuccessful payoff at t=1 is $0. However, in case of failure, the firm can abandon the rig and sells it for $480. What is the value of the abandonment option? (Hint: the value of the abandonment option is the difference between the NPV of the project with the abandonment option and the NPV of the project without the abandonment option)

A. $218.18

B. -$147.82

C.$145.60

D. $0.00

E. $82.55

Consider a five-year project with the following information: initial fixed asset investment = $720,000; straight-line depreciation to zero over the five-year life; zero salvage value; price = $32; variable costs = $15; fixed costs = $350,000; quantity sold = 70,000 units; tax rate = 25%.

A. $11.65

B. $12.75

C. $12.30

D. $11.95

E. $13.05
