Accounting

We project unit sales for a new household-use laser-guided cockroach search and destroy system as follows:
\table[[Year,Unit Sales],[1,98,500],[2,110,500],[3,133,500],[4,139,500],[5,92,500]]
The new system will be priced to sell at $450 each.
The cockroach eradicator project will require $1,700,000 in net working capital to start, and total net working capital will rise to 15% of the change in sales. The variable cost per unit is $320, and total fixed costs are $2,000,000 per year. The equipment necessary to begin production will cost a total of $20 million. This equipment is mostly industrial machinery and thus qualifies for CCA at a rate of 20%. In five years, this equipment will actually be worth about 20% of its cost.
The relevant tax rate is 35%, and the required return is 18%. Based on these preliminary estimates, what is the NPV of the project? (Enter the answer in dollars. Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round the final answer to 2 decimal places. Omit $ sign in your response.)
