Answer:
6.14%
Explanation:
The rate of return for the date given in the question for the asset shall be determined through calculating Internal rate of return on this asset, which shall be calculated as follows:
Year Cash flow Present value@5% Present value@10%
0 ($7,250) ($7,250) ($7,250)
1 $750 $714.29 $681.82
2 $1,000 $907.03 $826.45
3 $850 $734.26 $638.62
4 $6,250 $5,141.89 $4,268.83
$247.7 ($834.28)
IRR=A%+[a/(a-b)*(B%-A%)]
A%=5%, a=$247.7 B%=10% b=(834.28)
IRR=5%+[247.7/(247.7+834.28)*(10%-5%)]
IRR=6.14%
