    C$24,650

    Explanation:

    initial cost C$828,000

    net cash flows for years 1, 2 and 3 C$355,000

    discount rate 12%

    the net present value in C$ = C$355,000/1.12 + C$355,000/1.12² + C$355,000/1.12³ - C$828,000 = C$316,964 + C$283,004 + C$252,682 - C$828,000 = C$24,650

    Since we are asked to determine the NPV in Canadian dollars, all we need to do is carry out the same calculations as if they were any other currency. We do not need to make any adjustments due to the exchange rate between US dollars and Canadian dollars.
