Answer:
1. Calculate the NPV for the following:
- a. Small facility  = $2.6 million
- b. Do nothing  = $0
- c. Large facility = $2.2 million
2. The best decision to help Expando is:________
- b. to build the small facility.
Since the NPV of building the small facility is higher than the NPV of building the larger facility or doing nothing, they should build the small facility.
Explanation:
the expected present value of revenue generated by small plant = (0.70 x $10 million) + (0.30 x $12 million) = $7 + $3.6 = $10.6 million
the expected present value of revenue generated by large plant = (0.70 x $12 million) + (0.30 x $16 million) = $8.4 $4.8 = $13.2 million
small plant's NPV = $10.6 - $8 = $2.6 million
large plant's NPV = $13.2 - $11 = $2.2 million
NPV of doing nothing = $0 - $0 = $0
