Answer:

Net Present value = -$40,221

Explanation:

The net present value is the sum of the discounted cash-flows over the life of the project from t=0 to t=n.

Year  Cash-flow PVIF       Present Value

0           (55,500)   1.0000    (55,500)

1               2,700    0.9091       2,455  

2              2,700    0.8264      2,231  

3              2,700    0.7513       2,029  

3             11,400     0.7513       8,565  

        Net Present value       (40,221)

The salvage value is treated as a cash-flow at the end of year 3 as that's the last year in which the project records a cash inflow. In this question, a negative net present value implies that the project is not profitable, and should therefore not be undertaken.
