Answer:

B/E ratio 1.2356

Explanation:

[tex]B/E = \frac{PV \: cash-flow}{initial \: cost\: + operating \: cost \: PV}[/tex]

300,000 - 43,000 = 257,000

257,000/0.04 = 6,425,000

initial cost 2,200,000

unkeep cost 120,000/0.04 = 3,000,000

6,425,000/(2,200,000+3,000,000) = 1.235576923

Note we are given a discount rate, which means the upkeep, benefits and disbenefits are perpetual.
