(a) The developer is uncertain about the interest rate ( i ) to use, but is certain that it is in the range
TABLE 4

(b) Suppose that the developer's interest rate is known to be 15%. What would be the cost (in terms of net present value) of a 10% overestimation of the resale value (In other words, the true value was 10% lower than that of the original estimate.)
