    a. The value of NPV for the project is $36,423.15 at 10% discount rate. B. The IRR is 35%.

    Explanation:

    Defining the year 1 where the company invest the money, the perpetuity starts in the third year, so for the NPV calculation the calculation of the perpetuity has to be brought to present-day after its first calculation: NPV of perpetuity = [ (7000 / (0,1-0,05)) / (1+0,1) ^3]. This value has to be summed to the present value of other cash flows: [ (7000) / (1+0,1) ^2]+[ (-82,000) / (1+0,1) ^1]
