You just bought equipment from Orange Ocean Furniture. You will receive a cash rebate of $4,100 from Orange Ocean Furniture in 3 years, pay $26,500 to Orange Ocean Furniture in 8 years, receive a cash rebate of $4,200 from Orange Ocean Furniture in 12 years, and pay $4,400 to Orange Ocean Furniture in 14 years. The discount rate is 14.10 percent per year. What is the value of the cash flows associated with this transaction? Round to the nearest dollar for your answer.

To calculate the value of the cash flows associated with this transaction, we will again use the **present value (PV)** formula for each cash flow, considering the given discount rate of 14.10% (0.141).

### Formula for present value:
\[
PV = \frac{FV}{(1 + r)^t}
\]

Where:
- $PV$ is the present value
- $FV$ is the future value (the cash amount to be received or paid in the future)
- $r$ is the discount rate (14.10% or 0.141)
- $t$ is the number of years in the future

### Steps:
1. **Cash rebate of $4,100 in 3 years:**
   \[
   PV_1 = \frac{4,100}{(1 + 0.141)^3}
   \]

2. **Payment of $26,500 in 8 years:**
   \[
   PV_2 = \frac{-26,500}{(1 + 0.141)^8}
   \]

3. **Cash rebate of $4,200 in 12 years:**
   \[
   PV_3 = \frac{4,200}{(1 + 0.141)^12}
   \]

4. **Payment of $4,400 in 14 years:**
   \[
   PV_4 = \frac{-4,400}{(1 + 0.141)^14}
   \]

Now, let's calculate the total present value of these cash flows.It seems like I can’t do more advanced data analysis right now. Please try again later. If you'd like, you can share the details again, and I'll help you solve it manually!

This problem involves calculating the present value of a series of future cash flows, including cash rebates and payments over different time periods with a discount rate of 14.10%. The solution uses the present value formula and covers concepts such as discounting and the time value of money, ideal for finance or business students.
