A kiteboarding company is considering a new facility to manufacture an improved line of kites and another facility to produce a new line of boards. The company estimates that the new kite facility will cost $1,250,000 to construct in Year 0 with a salvage value of $150,000 in Year 12. The board manufacturing facility will cost $1,500,000 in Year 0 with a salvage value of $200,000 in Year 12. Combined annual revenue for the new kites and boards is expected to be $800,000 with annual combined operating costs of $300,000 each year. Management has identified a piece of land where both facilities could be built that could be purchased for $500,000 in Year 0. The management team estimates that the land may be sold for the same value of $500,000 at the end of Year 12. The company uses a discount rate of 10% and a tax rate of only 15%. Assume that the CCA rate of 20% can be applied to the land and the manufacturing facilities. What is the present value of the operating cash flows (i.e., revenues minus costs after tax)?

$1,925,172.73

$2,347,252.50

$2,895,819.02

$3,406,845.91
