Answer:

-$7,193

Explanation:

The computation of the net present value is shown below:

Year   Cash Inflows   PV factor at 11%      Present value

0      $170,000            1                           $170,000 (A)

1         $41,000            0.9009009             $36,936.94

2        $41,000            0.8116224                $33,276.52

3        $41,000            0.7311914                 $29,978.85

4        $41,000            0.6587310               $27,007.97

5       $41,000            0.5934513               $24,331.50

5       $19,000            0.5934513               $11,275.58

Total                                                         $162,807.35   (B)

Net Present Value (NPV)                     -$7,193  (B - A)

It is a difference between the cash inflow and the cash outflows
