Answer:

You Should invest

Explanation:

Let the IRR be x.

Now , Present Value of Cash Outflows=Present Value of Cash Inflows

103,000 =130,000/(1.0x)

Or x= 26.214%

Hence the IRR of this investment opportunity is 26.2% (approx)

Cost of Capital = 12%

The IRR rule says that one must accept. This is because the IRR is greater than the cost of capital.

Hence the correct answer is : should invest
