Your answer is partially correct.

Pharoah Inc. manufactures snowsuits. Pharoah is considering purchasing a new sewing machine at a cost of $$2\mathrm{.}45$ million. Its existing

machine was purchased $5$ years ago at a price of $$1\mathrm{.}8$ million; six months ago, Pharoah spent $$55,000$ to keep it operational. The

existing sewing machine can be sold today for $$240,275.$ The new sewing machine would require a one$-$time, $$85,000$ training cost.

Operating costs would decrease by the following amounts for years $1$ to $7$ :

The new sewing machine would be depreciated according to the declining$-$balance method at a rate of $20\%.$ The salvage value is

expected to be $$380,500.$ This new equipment would require maintenance costs of $$94,900$ at the end of the fifth year. The cost of

capital is $9\%.$

Use the net present value method to determine the following: $($If net present value is negative then enter with negative sign preceding the

number e$.$g$.-45$ or parentheses e$.$g$.(45).$ Round present value answer to $0$ decimal places, e$.$g$.125.$ For calculation purposes, use $5$ decimal

places as displayed in the factor table provided.$)$

Calculate the net present value.
