Annual Cashflow in Year 3 would be equal to annual EBIT i.e. $67,553.
1. This is because their marginal tax rate is 0 and due to that there is no tax involvement.
2. Since machine is purchased in 1st year, it won't be relevant in calculation for Year 3. Even benefit of depriciation in tax savings would be 0 as tax is 0.
3. Working capital would also be relevant for 1st or last year only. So, that is also not relevant.
