Beyer Company is considering the purchase of an asset for $215,000. It is expected to produce the following net cash flows. The cash flows occur evenly within each year. Assume that Beyer requires a 9% return on its investments (PV 51. FV of 1. PVA of S1 and EVA of SD (Use appropriate foctor(s) from the tables provided.)
