2. A water resources project has benefits that equal $40,000 at the end of the first year and increase on a uniform gradient series to $200,000 at the end of the fifth year. The benefits remain constant at $200,000 each year until the end of year 30, after which they decrease to $0 on a uniform gradient at the end of year 40. What is the present value of these benefits using a 6-percent interest rate?
