Cochrane, Inc., is considering a new three-year expansion project that requires an initial fixed asset investment of $1,680,000. The fixed asset will be depreciated straight-line to zero over its three-year tax life, after which time it will be worthless. The project is estimated to generate $1,950,000 in annual sales, with costs of $1,060,000. The project requires an initial investment in net working capital of $150,000, and the fixed asset will have a market value of $175,000 at the end of the project. Assume that the tax rate is 34 percent and the required return on the project is 14 percent.

Requirement 1:

What are the net cash flows of the project for the following years? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign. Enter your answers in dollars, not millions of dollars (e.g., 1,234,567).)
