Hi sir, could you please explain how to treat redundancy and lost contribution in this question. Cant i just deduct it as an expense in my NPV calculation? In BPP kit they have calculated NPV before these costs and said it will reduce NPV by 0.1 million, i dont understand how

If you discount the flows for the four years you get a PV of $140,678. The examiner has just stated it to the nearest $100,000 and has therefore written $0.1M.
Why cant i just deduct them directly in NPV calculation instead of calculating their PV seperately?

Thank you for the help
