Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
To determine whether the project should be accepted or not, we need to calculate the net present value. If the NPV is positive, the project should be accepted.
To calculate the NPV, we will use the following formula:
NPV= -Io + ∑[Cf/(1+i)^n]
Cf1= 9,800/1.0975= 8,929.38
Cf2= 16,400/1.0975^2= 13,615.54
Cf3= 21,700/1.0975^3= 16,415.20
Total= $38,960.12
NPV= -38,700 + 38,960.12
NPV= 260.12
The project is profitable.
