Answer:

$28,155.81

Explanation:

Summary of Cash flows :

Year 0 = - ($250,000 + $20,000) = - $270,000

Year 1 = $120,000

Year 2 = $120,000 - $90,000 = $30,000

Year 3 = $120,000

Year 4 = $120,000 + $10,000 + $20,000 = $150,000

Using the CFj Function of a financial calculator we have :

- $270,000      CFj 0

$120,000         CFj 1

$30,000          CFj 2

$120,000         CFj 3

$150,000         CFj 4

I/yr = 14%

Thus, the net present value of the contract with the local bank is $28,155.81
