COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS
Listed in the diagram for Problem 7 are some probability estimates of the costs and benefits associated with two competing projects.
a. Compute the net present value of each alter native. Round off the cost projections to the nearest month. Explain what happens to the answer if the probabilities of the recurring costs are in correct, and a more accurate estimate is as follows:
