A company just paid $10 million for a feasibility study. If the company goes ahead with the project, it must immediately spend another $108,168,164 now, and then spend $20 million in one year.

Should the firm go ahead with the project? (Enter negative amounts using negative sign e.g. -45.25. Do not round discount factors. Round intermediate calculations to 0 decimal places, e.g. 1,525 and final answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25.)

Company XYZ is considering an investment project that is expected to generate the following cash flows: Year 1: $500,000 Year 2: $700,000 Year 3: $800,000 Year 4: $900,000 Year 5: $1,200,000 The cost of capital for the company is 10%.

To calculate the Firm's Present Value (FPV) of the cash flows, you need to discount each cash flow to its present value using the cost of capital, and then sum up the present values of all cash flows.
