Answer:
$63.56 million
Explanation:
We are to find the present value of the cash flows in order to determine the value of the contract today
Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows
Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator
Cash flow in year 0 = $4.00 million
Cash flow in year 1 = $12.09 million
Cash flow in year 2 = $13.36 million
Cash flow in year 3 = $14.17 million
Cash flow in year 4 = $15.26 million
Cash flow in year 5 = $16.43 million
I = 6%
Present value = $63.56 million
