Answer:

the maximum amount spend today is  $1,593,476.83

Explanation:

The computation of the maximum amount spend today is shown below:

But before that the cost of capital is

cost of capital = (1 - 1 ÷ 1.62) × 5% × (1 - 40%) + (1 ÷ 1.62) × 11.55%

= 8.28%

Now

The Maximum amount to be spent is

= $309,000 ÷ 8.28% × (1-1 ÷ (1 + 8.28%)^7)

= $1,593,476.83

Hence, the maximum amount spend today is  $1,593,476.83
