A popular energy provider has been closely monitoring grid demand and is concerned about strain from facto such as the climate crisis and increased vehicle electrification. They are exploring the possibility of investing in new infrastructure to ramp up their production -- they plan to invest $25,000,000 today, and the potential profits from this project are laid out below. If the company MARR is 8%, what is the NPV of this project, and is something worth investing in?

You are planning to produce a new action figure called "Nia." However, you are very uncertain about the demand for the product. If it is a hit, you will have net cash flows of $80 million per year for three years (starting next year [i.e., at t = 1]). If it fails, you will only have net cash flows of $40 million per year for two years (also starting next year). There is an equal chance that it will be a hit or failure (probability = 50 percent). You will not know whether it is a hit or a failure until the first year's cash flows are in (i.e., at t = 1). You must spend $140 million immediately for equipment and the rights to produce the figure. If you can sell your equipment for $90 million once the first year's cash flows are received, calculate the value of the abandonment option. (The discount rate is 10 percent.)
