    Book Value is $3 million and market value is $4,013,333.

    Explanation:

    The book value of the project is $3million and the market value of the company is as under:

    The market value of the project can be calculated using the annuity formula which is as under:

    Present Value of the investment = Cash flow * Annuity Factor

    The annuity factor can be calculated using the following formula:

    Annuity Formula = [ (1 - (1+r) ^-n) / r ]

    Here r is 15% and n is 10 years. So by putting the values in the Annuity equation we have:

    Annuity Formula = [ (1 - (1+15%) ^-10) / 15%] = 5.02

    By putting this formula in the present value formula:

    Market value of the investment = $800,000 * 5.02 = $4,013,333
