Sandrine Machinery is a Swiss multinational manufacturing company. Currently, Sandrine's financial planners are considering undertaking a 1-year project in the United States. The project's expected dollar-denominated cash flows consist of an initial investment of $2,000 and a cash inflow the following year of $2,400. Sandrine estimates that its risk-adjusted cost of capital is 12%. Currently, 1 U.S. dollar will buy 0.91 Swiss franc. In addition, 1-year risk-free securities in the United States are yielding 2%, while similar securities in Switzerland are yielding 1.00%.
