Steve's Sub Shop is considering investing in toaster ovens for each of its 120 stores located in the southwestern United States. The high-capacity conveyor toaster ovens, manufactured by Lincoln, will require an initial investment of $15,000 per store plus $500 in installation costs, for a total investment of $1,860,000. The new capital (including the costs for installation) will be depreciated over five years using straight-line depreciation toward a zero salvage value. Steve's will also incur additional maintenance expenses totaling $120,000 per year to maintain the ovens. At present, firm revenues for the 120 stores total $9 million, and the company estimates that adding the toaster feature will increase revenues by 7%.

If Steve's faces a 30% tax rate, what expected project FCFs for each of the next five years will result from the investment in toaster ovens?
