Accounting

The marketing department did market research last year that suggested the company could sell 5,000 more units of this product; the cost of this research was $10,800.

The cost of the advertising campaign would be $53,300. The product's contribution margin is $13.00 per unit; additional annual fixed costs would be $16,000. The increased sales are expected to last for 4 years.

Assuming a discount rate of 4%, what is the net present value of this investment?

A: $40,861 B: $59,249 C: $85,910 D: $124,570 E: $180,626 F: $261,908
