    e. $1,285,000

    Explanation:

    The computation of the initial cash flow is shown below:

    = Land current value + grading and excavation work cost + unused equipment cost + producing awnings cost + other equipment cost

    = $425,000 + $15,000 + $60,000 + $5,000 + $780,000

    = $1,285,000

    The cost which is required for the expansion cost is considered

    All other information which is given is not relevant. Hence, ignored it
