Outlays: PMT = $17 200; P/Y = C/Y = 1; I/Y = 14.2%; i = 0.0142
PVOUT = 17200 (1.142) -15000(1.142)-5 = 45449.8213 - 7722.5502 = 37 727.27
  = $37 727
  = 60000(1.142)-4 + 20000(1.142)-5 = 35276.6093 + 10296.7336 = 45 573.34
  = $45 573
NPV = 45 573 - 37 727 = $7 846 The company should undertake the project.
