Would you be able to assist with the following scenario? 

Based on the information below, once the minimum threshold of participants is reached, the initial investment to establish the center is $317,880. The organization anticipates that it will generate $46,920 of net revenues in the

The CEO has commissioned a needs assessment, and the study's results reveal that there are approximately 120 seniors in the local community who are interested in this center and the CEO expects growth of the aging 

population to be at least 10% each year. Cost growth across all areas of expense is expected to rise by 5% each year. The CEO has presented her proposal and financial information to the Board of Directors, and they have advised 

her that they are in full support of her strategy only if the program is a benefit to the community and if the organization can recoup its investment in five years. The CEO has asked you if this can be achieved. Based on the 

information presented in the scenario,
