    This is nothing to do with equivalent annual costs.

    If X is the price receive at the end of the contract, then the minimum price would be whatever gives an NPV for zero.

    In two years time there is a receipt of (X + 4000).
    The present value of this is (X + 4000) x 0.826.
    For an NPV of zero, (X + 4000) x 0.826 = (125000 + 4000)

    So X + 4000 = 156174

    So X = 152174
