Your company has a new project to be considered. You are given the following information on the best guess of related outcomes for the project. The cost of developing and market testing the product over the next year is $225 million. If the test is successful, which has a 65% chance, the company will spend another $800 million to put the production capabilities in place. The expected cash flows after tax for a successful project are $225 milion each year for the next six years with a probability of.8; there is a 20% chance of a zero NPV. If the test fails the cash flows associated with continuing through the sixth year are $125 million per year after tax. The company uses a 12% discount rate for these types of projects. Draw and label the decision tree. Explain what decisions management would make at each node upon their realization
