a. Use the tabular format given in Figure 7-5 to compute the after-tax cash flows. b. Compute the after-tax present worth of the project, and use a uniform gradient in your formulation. c. The before-tax present worth of this asset is -$50,070. By how much would the annual revenues have to increase to make the purchase of this asset justifiable on a before-tax basis?
