    The actual discounting involved is easy. Most of the work involved using techniques from previous exams (Papers FA and PM – were F2 and F5)).

    There are 9 possible things that can happen:

    1M in the first year and then 2M in the second year, with a probability of 0.1 x 0.3 = 0.03 or
    1M in the first year and then 3M in the second year, with a probability of 0.1 x 0.6 = 0.06 or
    1M in the first year and then 5M in the second year, with a probability of 0.1 x 0.1 = 0.01 or
    2M in the first year and then 2M in the second year, with a probability of 0.5 x 0.3 = 0.15 or
    2M in the first year and then 3M in the second year, with a probability of 0.5 x 0.6 = 0.3

    and so on.

    Calculate the PV of each of the nine alternatives and then the rest should follow sensibly 🙂

    The NPV is the PV of the inflows less the initial investment.

    So, for the first line in the table, 2,487 – 3,500 = (1,013)
