I’m a bit confused about the cost of capital. Does that mean we just use 12% for the discount rate? I feel like I’ve seen this in practice questions before.

If I recall, we should subtract the initial investment from the total present value of the cash flows. I hope I remember the discounting part right!

I remember doing a similar question where we had to discount cash flows. I think we use the formula for NPV, but I might mix up the steps.

I think we need to calculate the present value of the cash flows first, but I'm not entirely sure how to apply the formula correctly.
