The results showed that there are two Scenarios (A and B) whose probabilities of occurrence are 60% and 40% respectively, based on consumers’ willingness to buy the new product. To start production, €100,000 is required for new machinery, plus another €2,000 for transport costs and €1,000 for installation costs.

The new machinery will be fully depreciated at the end of its economic life and the company applies the straight-line depreciation method.
