We know that NPV is the present value of cash inflow less the present value of cash outflow

Now, given that the initial cash flow is $4125

Annual cash inflow is $75

This is in the form of a growing perpetuity

The formula for present value of growing perpetuity is

A/(Re-g)

Where A is the cash flow in Year -1( Date-1)

Re is the interest rate or the discount rate

g is the growth rate

Hence, Present value of cash inflow is 75*(1.1)/(0.12-0.1)

82.5/0.02

4250

hence the NPV of the project is 4250 - 4125 = 125

Since the NPV of the project is positive we will accept the project.
