    The machine's net present value is $3,481. The net present value is a method of calculating the present value of return of an investment either in capital purchases or projects. The net present value amount is acquired by subtracting the $ 37,000 initial investment from the net present value of $12,000 net cash flow for four years plus the present value of $1000 salvage value at the end of the 4th year.

    Net Present Value = Present value of net cash flow + Present value of salvage value - Initial investment

    $3,481 = $39,746 + $735 - $37,000
