Growth Option: Decision-Tree Analysis

Fethe's Funny Hats is considering selling trademarked, orange-haired curly wigs for University of Tennessee football games. The purchase cost for a 2-year franchise to sell the wigs is $20,000. If demand is good (40% probability), then the net cash flows will be $28,000 per year for 2 years. If demand is bad (60% probability), then the net cash flows will be $7,000 per year for 2 years. Fethe's cost of capital is 14%. Do not round intermediate calculations.

What is the expected NPV of the project? Negative value, if any, should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your answer to the nearest dollar. $

If Fethe makes the investment today, then it will have the option to renew the franchise fee for 2 more years at the end of Year 2 for an additional payment of $20,000. In this case, the cash flows that occurred in Years 1 and 2 will be repeated (so if demand was good in Years 1 and 2, it will continue to be good in Years 3 and 4). Write out the decision tree. Note: The franchise fee payment at the end of Year 2 is known, so it should be discounted at the risk-free rate, which is 8%. Select the correct decision tree.

Use decision-tree analysis to calculate the expected NPV of this project, including the option to continue for an additional 2 years. Negative values, if any, should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your answer to the nearest dollar. $
