Heywood Diagnostic Enterprises is evaluating a project with the following net cash flows and probabilities:
Year Prob=0.2 Prob=0.6 Prob=0.2
0 -$100,000 -$100,000 -$100,000
1 $20,000 $30,000 $40,000
2 $20,000 $30,000 $40,000
3 $20,000 $30,000 $40,000
4 $20,000 $30,000 $40,000
5 $30,000 $40,000 $50,000
The Year 5 values include salvage value. Heywood's corporate cost of capital is 10 percent.

b. What are the project's most likely, worst, and best case NPVs?
