Nautical Creations is one of the largest producers of miniature ships in a bottle. An especially complex part of one of the ships needs special production equipment that is not useful for other products. The company purchased this equipment early in 2018 for $200,000. It's now January 1, 2020, and the manager of the Model Ships Division, Jeri Finley, is considering two alternatives.

Alternative 1 - Produce the complex part using the current equipment.

The following are last year's average per-unit manufacturing costs, when production was 9,000 ships:

Direct materials	$3.65
Direct labor	3.75
Variable overhead	1.50
Fixed overhead	4.50

The equipment will last for five more years with zero disposal value at that time. It can be sold immediately for $30,000.

Alternative 2 - Produce the complex part with new, more efficient equipment.

The cost of the new equipment is $230,000 and will have a five-year useful life with an estimated disposal value at that time of $45,000. The sales representative selling the new equipment stated, "The new equipment will allow direct labor and variable overhead to be reduced by a total of $2.20 per unit." Finley thinks this estimate is accurate, but also knows that a higher quality of direct material will be necessary with the new equipment, costing $0.21 more per unit. In addition, fixed overhead costs will increase by $3,000.

Finley expects production to continue at 9,000 ships in each of the next five years.

REQUIRED [USE THE PRESENT VALUE TABLES ON PAGE 113 TO COMPUTE NET PRESENT VALUES; BE SURE TO USE THE NEGATIVE SIGN WHEN SUBMITTING NEGATIVE NET PRESENT VALUES; DO NOT INCLUDE A DOLLAR SIGN] 1. Assuming a discount rate of 5%, what is the net present value if Nautical Creations uses their current equipment to produce the part? $-522,077

2. Assuming a discount rate of 5%, what is the net present value if Nautical Creations buys the new equipment to produce the part?

I would like to get the answer of 2.
