Answer:

Marko is willing to pay $24,664 today to buy ABC Co.

Explanation:

Present values of all the cash flows will decide the today's value of the investment.

Present values

Required rate of return = CF ( 1 + r )^-n

First year = $5,500 x ( 1 + 0.13 )^-1 = $5,500 x ( 1.13 )^-1 = $4,867

Second year = $10,500 x ( 1 + 0.13 )^-2 = $10,500 x ( 1 .13 )^-2 = $8,223

Third year = $16,700 x ( 1 + 0.13 )-3 = $16,700 x ( 1.13 )-3 = $11,574

Net present value of all cash flows = $4,867 + $8,223 + $11,574 = $24,664
