Net Present Value Analysis
Champion Company is considering a contract that would require an expansion of its food processing capabilities. The contract covers five years. To provide the required products, Champion would have to purchase additional equipment for $58,000. Champion estimates the contract will provide annual net cash inflows (before taxes) of $21,000. For tax purposes, the equipment will be depreciated as follows:

Year 1	$8,000
Year 2	16,000
Year 3	16,000
Year 4	10,000
Year 5	8,000

Although salvage value is ignored in the tax depreciation calculations, Champion estimates the equipment will be sold for $5,000 after five years.

Assuming a 35% income tax rate and a 10% hurdle rate, compute the net present value of this contract proposal. Using net present value analysis, should Champion accept the contract?
