The development of a new marijuana edible will require the expenditure of $3,000,000 at the beginning of each of the next two years. Once legal, the product will reach the market at the beginning of year three and is expected to increase the firm's annual year-end profit by $800,000 for eight years. Then the product line will be sold for a projected price of $3,000,000. If the firm's cost of capital is 10.5%, should it proceed with the project? If the company can earn $5,000,000 for selling the product line, should they proceed with the project and what is the NPV?
