Atlantic Manufacturing is considering a new investment project that will last for four years. The delivered and installed cost of the machine needed for the project is $$22,684$ and it will be depreciated according to the three$-$year MACRS schedule. The project also requires an initial increase in net working capital of $$296.$ Financial projections for sales and costs are in the table below. In addition, since sales are expected to fluctuate, NWC requirements will also fluctuate. The end$-$of$-$year NWC requirements are included below $($hint: these NWC capital requirements DO NOT represent the change in NWC for the period$).$ The $$0$ requirement for NWC at the end of year $4$ means that all NWC is recovered by the end of the project. The corporate tax rate is $35\%$ and the required return on the project is $12\%.$
