Calculate Cash Flows

Natures Way Inc. is planning to invest in new manufacturing equipment to make a new garden tool. The garden tool is expected to generate additional annual sales of 9,000 units at $46 each. The new manufacturing equipment will cost $175,400 and is expected to have a 10-year life and $13,400 residual value. Selling expenses related to the new product are expected to be 5% of sales revenue. The cost to manufacture the product includes the following on a per-unit basis:

Direct labor		$7.8
Direct materials		25.6
Fixed factory overhead-depreciation		1.8
Variable factory overhead		3.9
	Total	$39.1

Determine the net cash flows for the first year of the project, Years 29, and for the last year of the project. Use the minus sign to indicate cash outflows. Do not round your intermediate calculations but, if required, round your final answer to the nearest dollar.
