Parker & Stone, Incorporated, is looking at setting up a new manufacturing plant in South Park to produce garden tools. The

company bought some land six years ago for $$7\mathrm{.}5$ million in anticipation of using it as a warehouse and distribution site, but

the company has since decided to rent facilities elsewhere. If the land were sold today, the company would net $$10\mathrm{.}3$

million. The company now wants to build its new manufacturing plant on this land; the plant will cost $$21\mathrm{.}5$ million to build,

and the site requires $$900,000$ worth of grading before it is suitable for construction. What is the proper cash flow amount

to use as the initial investment in fixed assets when evaluating this project?

Note: Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer in dollars, not millions, rounded to the nearest

whole number, e$.$g$.,1,234,567.$

Answer is complete but not entirely correct.
