Cochrane, Inc., is considering a new three-year expansion project that requires an initial fixed asset investment of $2,340,000.

The project is estimated to generate $2,230,000 in annual sales, with costs of $1,220,000. The project requires an initial investment in net working capital of $158,000, and the fixed asset will have a market value of $183,000 at the end of the project. Assume that the tax rate is 40 percent and the required return on the project is 9 percent.

Requirement 1:

What are the net cash flows of the project for the following years 0,1,2,3
