Think about changes that happen in a project once it has been accepted and moving forward. Here are 3 potential scenarios. For each, describe what you expect to happen to a project's expected NPV, and WHY that is your expectation. (2 pts for each of the following). As MBA snifents. just being able to calculate NPV isn't suffictent. You should be able to consider what the effects of warious market or project changes on the project's viability. 5 i. Two years ago, when the original cash flow projections were prepared for one of your company's projects it was assumed that at the project's end (another 6 years from now), the heavy equipment would be sold for $4 mm to a competitor. Due to much heavier wear on the equipment, it is now assumed that the equipment will be worth less than $1 mm at the project's end. ii. Newly available technology has reduced operating costs for a project that is in year 2 of a project which still has 8 years of viable life. No other changes in the project have occurred. iii. Labor shortages and supply delays have hit your company across most sectors, including a new hotel that is under construction. Instead of the hotel opening in September of 2023, it is now anticipated that the hotel won't be completed until mid-2025. These changes are anticipated to both increase construction costs as well as delay projected revenues on the project. Note: be sure to discuss each of these issues and whether they will offset or multiply the effect on NPV.
