Answer:

A) -$651,233

Explanation:

The computation of the benefit generated of the remodelling project is shown below:

If we considered the discounted rate i.e. 15% for 5 years of $820,000 so its present value would be $2,748,767 ($820,000 × 3.3521)

And, the predicted cost is $3,400,000

So here the cost is there instead of the benefit of

= $2,748,767 - $3,400,000

= -$651,233

Hence, the correct option is A
