Find the present value if the interest rate is 12 percent. (Hint You can simply bring each cash flow back to the present and then add them up.

Keep in mind that with the = NPV function in Excel, there is no initial outlay. That is, all this function does is bring all the future cash flows back to the present With a financial calculator, you should keep in mind that CF, is the initial outlay or cash flow at time 0, and, because there is no cash flow at time 0, CFO = 0.) b.
