1. The decision to invest in the Mark II must be made after three years, in 1985. 2. The Mark II has an investment requirement of $945 million, which is taken as fixed. 3. Forecasted cash inflows of the Mark II have a present value in 1985 of $852 million and $493 million (852/ 1.23 493) in 1982. 4.The future value of the Mark II cash flows is highly uncertain. This value evolves as a stock price does with a standard deviation of 44% per year. 5. The annual interest rate is 8%. Interpretation. The opportunity to invest in the Mark II is a three-year call option on an asset worth $493 million with an exercise price of $945 million. How does the value of the option to invest in the Mark II in 1982 change if: a. The investment required for the Mark II is $845 million (vs. $945 million)? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Option value

Last week, Giant Inc analyzed the project whose cash flows are shown below. However, before the decision to accept or reject the project, the Federal Reserve took actions that changed interest rates and therefore the firm’s cost of capital from 8% to 10%. The Fed’s action did not affect the forecasted cash flows. By how much did the change in the cost of capital affect the project’s forecasted NPV?
