    Option (a) : $8,283

    Explanation:

    As per the data given in the question,

    Year Net Cash Flow

    0 $142,000

    1 $30,000

    2 $30,000

    3 $30,000

    4 $30,000

    5 $62,000 ($30,000 + $32,000)

    Net present value = NPV (6%, A3:A7) - $142,000

    = $150,283.18 - $142,000

    = $8,283.18

    = $8,283

    Hence, option (a) : $8,283 is correct answer
