LP's owners had been offering engine adaptor kits for some time but have recently decided to begin building their own units. To make the adaptor kits the firm would need to invest in a variety of machine tools costing a total of $700,000. LP's management estimates that they will be able to borrow $400,000 from the firm's bank and pay 8 percent interest. The remaining funds would have to be supplied by LP's owners. The firm estimates that they will be able to sell 1,000 units a year for $1,300 each. The units would cost $1,000 each in cash expenses to produce (this does not include depreciation expense of $70,000 per year or interest expense of $32,000). After all expenses, the firm expects earnings before interest and taxes of $230,000. The firm pays taxes equal to 30 percent, which results in net income of $129,000 per year over the 10-year expected life of the equipment.The annual free cash flow LP should expect to receive from the investment in years 1 through 10 is? The anticipated NPV of the investment is?
