Hi maritza... if I correctly understand your question that there is going to be only 1 cash flow of $340,000 at the end of year 5 and that is it... then this project is not viable at all as it will yield negative NPV of $(1,019,491). But if the question says that cash flows will continue forever after the end of year 5 then we will use the perpetuity formula and project would be viable and give positive NPV of $ 309,354. Hope it will help you out
