Answer:

$10,300

the investment should be made because the NPV is positive

Explanation:

Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.  

NPV =  present value of the cash flows - Cost of the asset

present value of the cash flows = ($39,500 x 10) x (5.02/10) = 198290

NPV = 198290 - $187,990 = $10,300

The NPV is positive. this means that the investment is profitable. So, the investment should be made
