    Annual savings = 61,746.

    Explanation:

    The Net Present Value (NPV) is the difference between the present value (PV) of cash outflows and PV of cash inflow

    At the internal rate of return the PC of annual cash savings will be equal to the investment cost

    Initial cost = 211980

    PV = annual cash savings = A * (1 - (1+r) ^ (-n) / r

    A=? r-internal rate of return, 14%, n-number of years - 5

    211980 = A (1 - (1.14) ^ (-5) / 0.14

    211,980 = A * 3.433080969

    A = 211,980/3.43308

    A = 61746.28619

    Annual savings = 61,746.
