A firm has an opportunity to invest in a project that will have an initial cost of $$800,000.$ The project will last for $8$ years, and depreciation on the project's assets will be on a straight$-$line basis to zero. The firm's tax rate is $40\%,$ and its required return on this type of project is $10\%.$ The firm has also estimated the unit sales, price per unit, variable costs per unit, and fixed costs associated with the project $($as seen in table below$).$ What is the NPV of the project in the worst case scenario? Round your answer to the nearest dollar.
