Suppose Happy Dog Soap Company is evaluating a proposed capital budgeting project (project Beta) that will require an initial investment of $3,225,000. The project is expected to generate the following net cash flows: Year Cash Flow
Year 1 $275,000
Year 2 $475,000
Year 3 $400,000
Year 4 $500,000

Happy Dog Soap Company's weighted average cost of capital is 8%, and project Beta has the same risk as the firm's average project. Based on the cash flows, what is project Beta's NPV?

a. -$5,056,663
b. -$1,831,663
c -$2,106,412
d. -$2,197,996

-$1,878,086.608

Explanation:

The computation of the net present value is shown below;
