The net aftertax salvage value of $15,000 will be received at the end of the project. The project requires $61,000 of net working capital up front that will be fully recovered.

Answer:

     NPV  =$ 60,311.80

Explanation:

The net present value (NPV) of a project is the present value of cash inflow  less the present value of cash outflow of the project.

NPV = PV of cash inflow - PV of cash outflow

We can set out the cash flows of the project using the table below:

                                                  0                  1                   2                 3          

Operating cash flow                                136,000     136,000    136,000

Initial cost                              (274,000)

Working capital                     (61,000 )                                          61,000

Salvage value                                                                            15000                

Net cashflow                     (335,000)  136,000      136,000      212,000.

PV  inflow= (136000)× (1.1)^(-1) + (136,000× (1.1)^(-2) + (112,000)× (1.1)^(-3)

       =  395,311.80

NPV =395,311.80 -335,000

       =$ 60,311.80
