Answer:

$2,685

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the machine's net present value

NET PRESENT VALUE

Year Cash flow*Discount factor at 8% =Discounted Cash flows

0 $ -40,000*1= $-40,000

1 $ 12,000*0.9259= $11,111

2 $12,000*0.8573=$10,289

3 $ 12,000* 0.7938=$9,526

4 $16,000*0.7350=$11,760

NET PRESENT VALUE $2,685

($-40,000+$11,111+$10,289+$9,526+$11,760)

Therefore the machine's net present value is $2,685
