Sigma is thinking about purchasing a new clam digger for $14,000. The expected net cash flows resulting from the digger are $9,000 in year 1, $7,000 in year 2, $5,000 in year 3, and $3,000 in year 4. Should Sigma purchase this digger if its cost of capital is 12 percent

Yes, it should be purchased

Explanation:

The computation is shown below;

Net present value = $9,000 ÷ 1.12 + $7,000 ÷ 1.12^2 + $5,000 ÷ 1.12^3 + $3,000 ÷ 1.12^4 - $14,000

= $5,081.53

As we can see that the net present value comes in positive so sigma should purchased the digger

Therefore the same would be considered and relevant
