You are considering constructing a new plant in a remote wilderness area to process the ore from a planned mining operation. You anticipate that the plant will take a year to build and cost $ 100 million upfront. Once built, it will generate cash flows of $18 million per year starting two years from today. In 21 years, after its 20th year of operation, the mine will run out of ore and you expect to pay $260 million to shut the plant down and restore the area to its pristine state. Using a cost of capital of 11%: a. What is the NPV of the project? b. Is using the IRR rule reliable for this project? Explain. c. What are the IRRs of this project? a. What is the NPV of the project? The NPV of the project is $ million. (Round to one decimal place.)
