    The price o the machine is = $268,157.69

    Explanation:

    The Net present value is the difference between the present value (PV) cash inflows and the initial cost of the investment.

    PV of cash inflow =

    90,000 * (1 - (1.1) ^ (-7)) / 0.1

    = 438,157.69

    NPV = PV of cash inflow - cost of the machine

    Let represent cost of the machine as " y "

    170,000 = 438,157.69 - y

    y = 438,157.69 - 170,000

    y = 268,157.69

    The price o the machine is = $268,157.69
