Suppose that you found the probabilities and expected NPVs of 3 scenarios for a timing option:
E(NPV) probability
$0.15 0.30
$10.35 0.50
$42 0.20
1. What is the expected NPV of the timing option? Show your work.
2. Suppose, that the expected NPV of the project if proceeding today is $14. Should the project be delayed based on your finding in part 1 or should the management implement it today? Briefly explain.
