Answer:
c. $504,000
Explanation:
Total cost of new equipment = Price of equipment + Shipping & Installation costs = $3,200,000 + $160,000 = $3,360,000
Increase in working capital = Increase in inventories & account receivables - Increase in accounts payable = $640,000 - $256,000 = $384,000
Total Initial net investment outlay = $3,744,000 ($3,360,000+$384,000)
Project terminal cash-flow = Sale value of equipment (after tax) + Recovery of working capital = $200,000*(1-0.40) + $384,000 = $120,000 + $384,000 = $504,000
