Suggested answer: C

Explanation:

To find the solution to this answer, you'll need to use the present value formula which is Present value=future value(1+i)n, where i is the interest rate and n is the power of the number of time periods. In this instance, it's $2,750,000(1.262) for the present value of $2,178,257.57.

If the cost of the project is more than the present value, it's not a good investment for the organization. Answer D is incorrect. This is not a valid calculation of the present value formula.

Answer B is incorrect. This is not a valid calculation of the present value formula. Answer A is incorrect. This is not a valid calculation of the present value formula.
