(Net present value calculation) Carson Trucking is considering whether to expand its regional service center in Mohab, UT. The expansion requires the expenditure of$9,500,000 on new service equipment and would generate annual net cash inflows from reduced costs of operations equal to $3,000,000 per year for each of the next 6years. In year 6 the firm will also get back a cash flow equal to the salvage value of the equipment, which is valued at $0.9 million. Thus, in year 6 the investment cashinflow totals $3,900,000. Calculate the project's NPV using a discount rate of 6 percent.If the discount rate is 6 percent, then the project's NPV is $(Round to the nearest dollar.)
