We are examining a new project. We expect to sell 6,600 units per year at $60 net cash flow apiece for the next 10 years. In other words, the annual cash flow is projected to be $60 6,600 = $396,000. The relevant discount rate is 14 percent, and the initial investment required is $1,770,000. After the first year, the project can be dismantled and sold for $1,640,000. Suppose you think it is likely that expected sales will be revised upward to 9,600 units if the first year is a success and revised downward to 5,200 units if the first year is not a success.

a. If success and failure are equally likely, what is the NPV of the project? Consider the possibility of abandonment in answering. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places. e.g., 32.16.)

b. What is the value of the option to abandon? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places. e.g., 32.16.)
