Answer:

$1,952 (Positive NPV)

Explanation:

Year   Annual CF ($)   PV factor at 10.30%    PV of Cash Flow ($)

1               17,000                  0.90662                         15,413

2              17,000                  0.82196                          13,973

3              17,000                   0.74520                         12,668

4              17,000                   0.67561                          11,485

5              17,000                   0.61252                          10,413

6              17,000                   0.55532                          9,441

7              17,000                    0.50347                          8,559

TOTAL                                    1.73554                          81,952

Net Present Value (NPV) = Present value of annual cash flows - Initial Cost

Net Present Value (NPV) = $81,952 - $80,000

Net Present Value (NPV) = $1,952 (Positive NPV)
