Economics
Mark is working to create the "metaverse". He has already spent $2 billion on fixed costs. With 30% probability, the metaverse will be a big success, in which case he can choose whether to spend $5 billion on engineering to earn revenues of $20 billion. (If he chooses not to spend all of that amount of engineering, then his revenue from the metaverse will be $0.) With 70% probability, the metaverse will not be popular, in which case Mark will choose whether to spend $5 billion on engineering in order to receive $3 billion in revenue. Assuming that Mark maximizes profit, what is the expected value of his metaverse project? Choose the nearest answer.
a.
$2.5 billion
b.
$3.1 billion
c.
-$2 billion
d.
$4.5 billion
e.
$1.1 billion
6.7 Project Evaluation Your firm is contemplating the purchase of a new $575,000 com-puter based order entry system. The system will be depreciated straight-line to zero over its 5-year life. It will be worth $60,000 at the end of that time. You will save $176,000 before taxes per year in order processing costs, and you will be able to reduce working capital by $80,000 (this is a one-time reduction). If the tax rate is 23 percent, what is the IRR for this project?

Caspian Sea Drinks is considering the purchase of a
new water filtration system produced by Rube Goldberg
Machines. This new equipment, the RGM-7000, will
allow Caspian Sea Drinks to expand production. It will
cost $15.00 million fully installed and will be fully
depreciated over a 18.00 year life, then removed for no
cost. The RGM-7000 will result in additional revenues of
$2.83 million per year and increased operating costs of
$681,996.00 per year. Caspian Sea Drinks' marginal tax
rate is 20.00%. The incremental cash flows for produced
