Explanation / Answer
Present value of inflows=cash inflow*Present value of discounting factor(rate%,time period)
=(100,000(0.84746)+(92000*0.71818)+(120000*0.60863)+(160,000*0.51579)+(100,000*0.43711)
=$350091.56
NPV=Present value of inflows-Present value of outlows
=$350091.56-$200,000
which is equal to
=$150092(Approx)(A)
