70. Foley Systems is considering a new project whose data are shown below. Under the new tax law, the equipment for
the project is eligible for 100% bonus depreciation, so it will be fully depreciated at t = 0. After the project’s 3-year life,
the equipment would have zero salvage value. The project would require additional net operating working capital
(NOWC) that would be recovered at the end of the project’s life. Revenues and operating costs are expected to be constant
over the project’s life. What is the project’s NPV? (Hint: Cash flows from operations are constant in Years 1 to 3.) Do not
round the intermediate calculations and round the final answer to the nearest whole number.
