The press falls in the MACRS five-year class (MACRS Table), and it will have a salvage value at the end of the project of $121,800. The press also requires an initial investment in spare parts inventory of $34,800, along with an additional $5,220 in inventory for each succeeding year of the project. Required: If the shop's tax rate is 33 percent and its discount rate is 19 percent, what is the NPV for this project?
