Florida Seaside Oil Exploration Company is deciding whether to drill for oil off the northeast coast of Florida. The company estimates that the project would cost $4.24 million today. The firm estimates that once drilled, the oil will generate positive cash flows of $2.12 million a year at the end of each of the next four years.
