Answer:

D. The payback period is less than 2 years.

Explanation:

Discount rate                 5%  

                                        0      1          2

intital investment        -10  

cash flow                       0        30

Total cash flow         -10      0        30

NPV                        17.21  

IRR                                 73%  

Therefore, The NPV is 17.21 and is positive, the statement is True.

IRR > 50%, Therefore the statement made is True

Accounting rate of return = {[(30 - 10)/10]^(1/2)} - 1

                                           = 41% > 0

Therefore, The statement made is true.

Payback period = 2 years, Therefore the statement made is NOT true.
