This is a tricky one. The project was initially approved, but now there's a major unexpected cost. Shareholder confidence is definitely a factor to consider.

Hmm, the project has already incurred significant costs, but the NPV is now negative. I wonder if the additional cost of diverting the waterway will outweigh the expected benefits.
