I don't get in the above question how they reach the figure of $120 + inflation per unit in the Contribution for part sales in the latter part of the NPV calculation. The question states Imoni Co will get a pre-taxed contribution of $40 for each unit. Where does $120 come from? I get how they get the rest of the figures for the contribution line just not the $120!

Currently they are selling at 200 and earning a contribution of 40. So the cost must be 160. In future they will sell at 280, and so with a cost of 160 it means that the new contribution will be 120 :-)
