Opulence Corporation operates several large cruise ships. One of these ships, the Bellwether, can hold up to 3,800 passengers and cost $760 million to build. Assume the following additional information:

There will be 300 cruise days per year operated at a full capacity of 3,800 passengers.

The variable expenses per passenger are estimated to be $80 per cruise day.

The revenue per passenger is expected to be $400 per cruise day.

The fixed expenses for running the ship, other than depreciation, are estimated to be $94,848,000 per year.

The ship has a service life of 10 years, with a residual value of $120,000,000 at the end of 10 years.

a. Determine the annual net cash flow from operating the cruise ship.

Revenues $
Less variable expenses
Fixed expenses
Annual net cash flow $

b. Determine the net present value of this investment, assuming a 6% minimum rate of return. Use the present value tables provided above. If required, round to the nearest whole dollar.

Present value of annual net cash flows $
Present value of residual value
Total present value $
Less amount to be invested

Net present value

I just need the Present Value of residual value, I put 120,000,000 but it says that is wrong. Please and thank you
