Response Details:
discont all the cash flows for present period with the interest rate 11%.
If the current value is < $110,000 then the project shpuld not be undr taken.
otherwsie we can under take the project.
taking that we will get the cash flow art the end of the year.
PV=32432.43 + 35711.39 +27785.27- 28984.16 +48069.56
   
   = 115 014.49
so we can under take the project.
