Question 11 (8+5-13 marks) Great Art Inc is evaluating an investment opportunity in Melbourne that is currently being promoted by Commonwealth government. The project requires initial investment of $4.5 million. If the net cash flow at the end of the first year is $1.5 million (project is successful), the net cash flows will be $2.5 million per annum in perpetuity. The likelihood of the project being successful is 40%. If the net cash flow at the end of first year is $0.8 million (project is unsuccessful) the net cash flows will be $0.5 million per annum in perpetuity.
