**Scenario:**
Brown Company is considering purchasing a machine that would cost $320,000 and would last for 6 years. At the end of 6 years, the machine would have a salvage value of $50,000.

**Problem Statement:**
What is the net present value (NPV) of the proposed project? Use the present value tables provided below to assist in your calculations.
**Present Value Table:**
The table below provides the present value of $1 for various interest rates over different periods. Find the appropriate factors for the 11% rate of return over 6 periods.
| Periods | 4% | 5% | 6% | 7% | 8% | 9% | 10% | 11% | 12% | 13% | 14% |
