Suppose that an oil well is expected to produce 12, 00,000 barrels of oil during its first production year. However, its subsequent production (yield) is expected to decrease by 9% over the previous year's production. The oil well has a proven reserve of 10,500,000 barrels.(a) Suppose that the price of oil is expected to be $120 per barrel for the next six years. What would be the present worth of the anticipated revenue trim at an interest rate of 10% compounded annually over the next six years?(b) Suppose that the price of oil is expected to start at $120 per barrel during the first year, but to increase at the rate of 3% over the previous year's price. What would be the present worth of the anticipated revenue stream at an interest rate of 10% compounded annually over the next seven years?
