    D. $5,208.11

    Explanation:

    Projected cash flow for each year for 3 years = $22,500

    Initial cost = $50,000

    Additional working capital required = $3,000

    Year Cash flow PVIF @ 10% Discounted Value Total

    0 - $50,000 $1 - $50,000 - $50,000

    0 - $3,000 $1 - $3,000 - $3,000

    1 $22,500 0.909 $20,452.5 $20,452.5

    2 $22,500 0.826 $18,525 $18,525

    3 $22,500 0.751 $16,897.5 $16,897.5

    3 $3,000 0.751 $2,253 $2,253

    Total $5,128.00

    The nearest value is $5,208 and the difference is due to rounding off.

    Correct option is

    D. $5,208.11
