Showing all work, calculate the NPV of the following project:

The company you are working for wants to know if the Highway $401$ rest station electric vehicle charger project they are considering bidding is likely to be profitable, or not. The project documents call for revenue sharing among the construction trades. You calculate the NPV with the following inputs:

$$The cost for materials and labor, $$130$k$,$ is to be invested immediately in year zero

$$You spend $$30$k in the following year on electrical room upgrades.

$$Anticipated revenues are to be $$30$k in year $0,$ $$100$k in year $1,$ $$130$k in year $2,$ $$160$k in year $3,$ and $$190$k in year $4.$

$$The annual inflation rate is $3\%.$

$$The company requires a rate of return of $15\%.$

Select the right answer

A$)$The company should pursue the project because a net profit of $$460$k is achieved

B$)$The company should pursue the project because the revenue is steadily going up$.$ If the trend continued, they would get revenue of $$210$k in year $5.$

C$)$The company should pursue the project even though the net present value is only $$248$k$.$

D$)$The company should pursue the project even though the net present value is $$300$k$.$

E$)$None of the above
