Use the attached file answer the following questions.
1. Use 2.5% as the average inflation rate and 14% as the hurdle rate, please obtain the NPV (net present value) of this sourcing project. Is this project worth doing? Why so?
2. Assuming inflows of 2028-2030 are not certain but will follow distributions below, please re-evaluate the Lorain Location. What is the percentage of NPV being greater than the initially obtained value in step 1 (not zero). (hint: set your lower threshold value to the previous NPV, see what is the percentage greater than that value.)
