predicts that sales related to the project will be $$2\mathrm{.}99$ million per year for the next four

years, after which the market will cease to exist. The machine will be depreciated to zero

operating expenses related to the project are predicted to be $30$ percent of sales. The

company also needs to add net working capital of $$230,000$ immediately. The additional

net working capital will be recovered in full at the end of the project's life. The corporate

tax rate is $21$ percent and the required return for the project is $13$ percent. What is the
