You must analyze the forecasted risk and cash flows of a project at your firm to determine if it is a smart investment.  The cost of the project is $120 million today.  The forecasted cash flows at the end of each of the next 6 years are $30 million.  The project’s beta is 1.8.  Assume the risk-free rate is 3% and the expected return on the market is 13%.  a)  What is the net present value of the project? (5 points) b)  You recognize that your forecast of project beta could be in error, so you perform some additional analysis.  Determine how high the beta could be and still generate a zero NPV.  (5 points)
