Answer:

Ans. the net present value is exactly $50,602, so it is closer to b) $50,504

Explanation:

Hi, to find the net present value of this problem, we have to use the following formula.

[tex]NPV=-Investment+\frac{AnnualCashFlow((1+rate)^{n}-1) }{rate(1+rate)^{n} }[/tex]

Therefore

[tex]NPV=-390000+\frac{136000((1+0.09)^{4}-1) }{0.09(1+0.09)^{4} } =50601.9=50602[/tex]

So the answer is b) $50,504

Best of luck
