Carson Trucking is considering whether to expand its regional service center in Mohab, UT. The expansion requires the expenditure of $11 comma 000 comma 000 on new service equipment and would generate annual net cash inflows from reduced costs of operations equal to $3 comma 000 comma 000 per year for each of the next 9 years. In year 9 the firm will also get back a cash flow equal to the salvage value of the equipment, which is valued at $1.1 million. Thus, in year 9 the investment cash inflow totals $4 comma 100 comma 000. Calculate the project's NPV using a discount rate of 8 percent.
