The company plans a net investment of $7 million in the project. The current spot exchange rate is SF5.25 per dollar (SF = Swiss francs). Net cash flows for the expansion project are estimated to be SF5 million for 12 years and nothing thereafter. Based on its analysis of current conditions in Swiss capital markets, International Foods has determined that the applicable cost of capital for the project is 11 percent. Calculate the net present value of the proposed expansion project. Use Table IV to answer the questions below. Enter your answer in millions. For example, an answer of $1.20 million should be entered as 1.20, not 1,200,000. Round your answer to two decimal places. $
