Albert Co. is considering a four-year project that will require an initial investment of $15,000. The base-case cash flows for this project are projected to be $15,000 per year. The best-case cash flows are projected to be $22,000 per year, and the worst-case cash flows are projected to be - $1,500 per year. The company's analysts have estimated that there is a 50% probability that the project will generate the base-case cash flows. The analysts also think that there is a 25% probability of the project generating the best-case cash flows and a 25% probability of the project generating the worst case cash flows. What would be the expected net present value (NPV) of this project if the project's cost of capital is 14%? O $25,054 O $21,786 O $22,875 O $18,518 Albert now wants to take into account its ability to abandon the project at the end of year 2 if the project ends up generating the worst case scenario cash flows. If it decides to abandon the project at the end of year 2, the company will receive a one-time net cash inflow of $3,000 (at the end of year 2). The $3,000 the company receives at the end of year 2 is the difference between the cash the company receives from selling off the project's assets and the company's $1,500 cash outflow from operations. Additionally, if it absurdons the project, the company will have no cash flows in years 3 and 4 of the project. Using the information in the preceding problem, find the expected NPV of this project when taking the abandonment option into account. $1,073 O $21.971 $1,341 O $26,596 $1,207 O $23,127 $1,408 O $28,909 $872 What is the value of the option to abandon the project
