Answer:

NPV = $-43246.56103 rounded off to - $43246.56

Explanation:

The Net Present Value or NPV is a tool used to evaluate projects. It is used with various other tools to decide whether to undertake a project or not. To calculate the Net Present Value or NPV, we take the present value of the cash inflows provided by the project and deduct the initial cost of the project.

NPV = CF1 / (1+r)  +  CF2 / (1+r)^2  +  ...  + CFn / (1+r)^n  -  Initial Cost

Where,

  • CF1, CF2, ... represents cash flow in Year 1, Year 2 and so on.
  • r is the required rate of return

NPV = 74000 (1+0.12)  +  74000 (1+0.12)^2  +  74000 (1+0.12)^3  +  74000 (1+0.12)^4  +  74000 (1+0.12)^5  -  310000

NPV = $-43246.56103 rounded off to - $43246.56

Parents can reduce their taxes by:
shusha [124]

Parents can reduce their taxes by using a child care tax credit. The government gives parents tax credit for each child that they have. Unlike tax deduction and exemption, tax credit can be able to reduce more in the parents’ tax bill. Tax deduction just tries to lower the taxable income and not a reduction in other areas.
