Games Unlimited Inc. is considering a new game that would require an investment of $21.0 million. If the new game is well received, then the project would produce cash flows of $9.5 million a year for 3 years. However, if the market does not like the new game, then the cash flows would be only $6.8 million per year. There is a 50% probability of both good and bad market conditions. The firm could delay the project for a year while it conducts a test to determine if demand would be strong or weak. The project's cost and expected annual cash flows would be the same whether the project is delayed or not. If the WACC is 9.6%, what is the value (in thousands) of the investment timing option? Do not round intermediate calculations. ?
A. $1,274
B. $1,083
C. $1,592
D. $1,019
E. $1,147
