D) Negative $118,145

Respuesta :

Answer:

C) Positive $19,875

Explanation:

The computation of net present value for this investment is shown below:-

Net present value = present value of cash inflows - Present value of cash outflow

= Annual cash inflow × present value annuity factor for 5 years at 6% - $375,000

= ($93,750 × 4.212) - $375,000

= $394,875 - $375,000

= $19,875

Therefore for computing the net present value we simply applied the above formula.
