Blue Angel, Inc., a private firm in the holiday gift industry, is considering a new project. The company currently has a target debt–equity ratio of .45, but the industry target debt–equity ratio is .40. The industry average beta is 1.30. The market risk premium is 7 percent, and the risk-free rate is 5 percent. Assume all companies in this industry can issue debt at the risk-free rate. The corporate tax rate is 34 percent. The project requires an initial outlay of $688,000 and is expected to result in a $108,000 cash inflow at the end of the first year. The project will be financed at Blue Angel’s target debt–equity ratio. Annual cash flows from the project will grow at a constant rate of 5 percent until the end of the fifth year and remain constant forever thereafter.

Calculate the NPV of the project. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answer to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))
