Use parentheses or a minus sign for a negative net present value. Net present value of expansion Assume that Frost Valley's managers developed the following estimates concerning a planned expansion to its Brook Park Lodge (all numbers assumed): Requirements Number of additional skiers per day 124 Average number of days per year that weather conditions allow skiing at Frost Valley 156 Useful life of expansion (in years) .... 8 Average cash spent by each skler per day ........$ 244 Average variable cost of serving each skier per day . $ 140 Cost of expansion ... $ 8.500.000 Discount rate 10% Assume that Frost Valley uses the straight-line depreciation method and expects the lodge expansion to have a residual value of $900.000 at the end of its eight-year life. It has already calculated the average annual net cash in flow per year to be $2,011,776. 1. What is the project's NPV? Is the investment attractive? Why or why not? 2.
