To determine: The best-case and worst-case
Introduction:
Net present value (NPV) refers to the current discounted value of the future cash flows. The company should accept the project, if the net present value is positive or greater than zero and vice-versa. If there are two mutually exclusive projects, then the company has to select the project that has higher net present value.

Answer to Problem 21QP
The best-case NPV is $53,849,087.272.
The NPVof worst-caseis -$19,007,791.712.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The new clubs sold $715 per set and number of sets sold is 75,000 set per year. The cheaper club was sold for $425 per set and number of sets sold is 12,000 set per year. The expensive clubs was sold for $1,150 in which the company has lost sales of 10,000 sets.
The variable cost of the new club is $385 per set, variable cost of the expensive cub is $620, and the variable cost of the cheaper club is $195. The fixed costs each years is $9,400,000. The accurate estimate is ±10%.
