Lanfranco Corporation is considering a capital budgeting project that would require
investing $160,000 in equipment with an expected life of 4 years and zero salvage

$100,000 in year 3. The company's income tax rate is 35% and its after-tax discount
rate is 6%. The company uses straight-line depreciation. Assume cash flows occur at the
end of the year except for the initial investments. The company takes income taxes into
account in its capital budgeting.
