The management of Penfold Corporation is considering the purchase of a machine that would cost $270,000, would last for 5 years,
Lorico [155]

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Initial investment= $270,000

Cash flow= $60,000

Number of years= 5

Discount rate= 12%

<u>To calculate the net present value (NPV), we need to use the following formula:</u>

NPV= -Io + ∑[Cf/(1+i)^n]

∑[Cf/(1+i)^n]:

Cf1= 60,000/1.12= 53,571.43

Cf2= 60,000/1.12^2= 47,831.63

.....

Cf5= 60,000/1.12^5= 34,045.61

∑[Cf/(1+i)^n]= 216,286.57

<u>Now, the NPV:</u>

NPV= -270,000 + 216,286.57

NPV= -53,713.43
