There is a 75% chance it could be 6% per year, anda 25% chance it could be 2% per year.  \n• Initial investment will be $18 million on 1 January 20X3, with $1 million scrap proceeds (in money terms) expected on the last day of year 4.  \n• Due to government assistance relating to research and development associated with the new mattress, corporate income tax is payable on net operating income ata special rate of 7% at the end of the year to which the cashflows relate for the duration of the project.
