Depreciation Amount in Year 1 = 10,000*30% = 3000

Depreciation Amount in Year 2 = (10000-3000)*30% = 2100

Annual upgrades over next 3 years will cost company = $1,400 per year.

Total deduction = $ 3500

Tax Benefit in year 2 = $ 3500*10.5% = 367.5

The present value = 367.5 / (1+r)n

= 367.5 / (1+0.05)2 = 367.5 / 1.1025

= 333.33
