Net present value calculation for Company A and Company B:
Year (n) | Cash flow from Company A (CF) | Present value (PV) of Cash Flows at the discount rate of 8% | Formula used |
0 | -$100,000 | -$100,000 | CF/(1+8%)^0 |
1 | $26,000 | $24,074 | CF/(1+8%)^1 |
2 | $26,000 | $22,291 | CF/(1+8%)^2 |
3 | $26,000 | $20,640 | CF/(1+8%)^3 |
4 | $26,000 | $19,111 | CF/(1+8%)^4 |
5 | $26,000 | $17,695 | CF/(1+8%)^5 |
Net Present Value (NPV) | $3,810 | sum of above values |

For Negative cash flow, a tax credit is assumed |
Therefore correct answer is option c. NPV (Company A) = 3,810; NPV (Company B) = -2,363
