Hello, I am not so sure on how to deal with this question. I know that the formula of NPV is PV(inflows) - PV(outflows), and the question has given that the PV(outflows) is 100m, so NPV should be PV(inflows) - 100m. However, I am not so sure on the PV(inflows) because this project starts to produce cash flows at time t=2 rather than t=1. So I wonder do I still need to use the formula of PVperpetuity which is C/r? Is it correct that the NPV is (30m8%)-100m = 275m?
