Answer:
NPV = $12,100
the project should be carried out
Explanation:
initial outlay = -$193,872
net cash flows years 1 - 10 = $44,200
present value of net cash flows = $44,200 x 4.66 = $205,972
net present value (NPV) = initial outlay + present value of cash flows = -$193,872 + $205,972 = $12,100
this investment should be carried out since its NPV is positive, therefore, it increases the company's wealth.
