(Net present value calculation) Carson Trucking is considering whether to expand its regional service center in Mohab, UT. The expansion requires the expenditure of $9,500,000 on new service equipment and would generate

annual net cash inflows from reduced costs of operations equal to $3,000,000 per year for each of the next 7 years. In year 7 the firm will also get back a cash flow equal to the salvage value of the equipment, which is valued at

$1.2 million. Thus, in year 7 the investment cash inflow totals $4,200,000. Calculate the project's NPV using a discount rate of 7 percent.

If the discount rate is 7 percent, then the project's NPV is 5. (Round to the nearest dollar.)
