8) Suppose an investor is interested in purchasing the following income producing property at a current market price of $450,000. The prospective buyer has estimated the expected cash flows over the next four years to be as follows: Year 1 = $40,000, Year 2 = $45,000, Year 3 = $50,000, Year 4 = $55,000. Assuming that the required rate of return is 12% and the estimated proceeds from selling the property at the end of year four is $500,000, what is the NPV of the project? A. $8,829.96 B. $9,889.56 C. $428,113.65 D. $459,889.56

9. As a firms sales grow, its current assets also tend to increase. For instance, as sales increase, the firms inventories generally increase, and purchases of inventories result in more accounts payable. Thus, spontaneously generated funds arise from transactions brought on by sales increases.
