Chapter 11, Problem 19SP

(Real options and capital budgeting) McDoogals Restaurants has come up with a new fast-food, casual restaurant combining some of the features of Chipotle, Panera, and Shake Shack, but it is not quite sure how the public will react to it. McDoogals feels that there is a 50–50 chance that consumers will like it and a 50–50 chance that they won’t. McDoogals is considering building one of these new restaurants; the cash flows if it succeeds and if it fails are given below.

The required rate of return is 10 percent. What is the NPV of the project if it is successfully received? What is the NPV if it is unsuccessfully received? Now determine the expected NPV from taking on this project given the fact that it has a 50–50 chance of success. If the project is well received by the public, McDoogals expects to build 20 more of these restaurants. The cash flows from these projects will be identical to the cash flows from the successful outcome, with the initial outlay occurring in year 1 rather than year 0 and followed by four annual cash flows of $400,000 each. The one-year delay for the expansion restaurants is a result of the fact that it will take one year to gauge how the public responds to the new restaurant. If it is not well received, then the project will be abandoned after year 4. What is the NPV of the project assuming that 20 additional of these restaurants will be built?

The financial information that Staci has been given suggests that the company is financially strong. Although she has not been able to validate information a friend provided to her via e-mail, Staci is concerned that the financial information she has been provided by ProTech might paint a better financial picture than actually exists. Staci’s concern has been inflated as the result of pressure from her boss to set a good price for the IPO. In addition, it has been reported (rumored) that Staci’s boss is a friend (perhaps close) with the CEO of ProTech. Staci has completed her analysis based on the information she was provided by ProTech, and she is ready to assign a price to the company’s stock. But, if the additional, unconfirmed information she has is correct, the price she sets might differ from what her analysis…
