Answer 1

$5,904.64

Step-by-step explanation:

We discount the future cashflows to their present values to determine the net present value.

Using the CFj function of the Financial Calculator, this will be set as :

-$42,398 CFj 0

$18,201 CFj 1

$21,219 CFj 2

$17,800 CFj 3

I/Yr = 9 %

Therefore,

the net present value is $5,904.64
