Respuesta :

Answer:

Net present value of machine = 4,245

Explanation:

In order to find the net present value of the machine we will discount the future cash flows of the machine using the cost of capital of 8% and add all of them up in order to calculate the present value of future cash flows and then we will subtract the initial cost of $70,000 in order to calculate the net present value.

Year 1 = 13,000    PV= 13,000/1.08=12,037

Year 2 = 24.000  PV=24,000/1.08^2=20,576

Year 3 = 33,000   PV=33,000/1.08^3=26,196

Year 4=  21,000    PV=21,000/1.08^4=15,435

12,037+20,576+26,196+15,435

Sum of the preset value of all future cash flows = 74,245

Net present value = 74,245-70,000=4,245
