Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is A because the net present value of the project is $8,798.29. This is calculated by taking the present value of the operating cash flows and the salvage value, and then subtracting the initial investment. The present value of the operating cash flows is $17,138.93, and the present value of the salvage value is $2,573.53. The initial investment is $11,601. Therefore, the net present value is $8,798.29.
