Installing an automated production system costing $300,000 is initially expected to save Zia Corporation $52,000 in expenses annually. If the system needs $7,500 in operating and maintenance costs each year and has a salvage value of $30,000 at year 10, what is the IRR of this system

Respuesta :

Answer:

8.87%

Explanation:

Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after-tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested

IRR can be calculated with a financial calculator  

Cash flow in year 0 = $-300,000

Cash flow each year from year 1 to 9 = $52,000  - $7,500  = $44500

Cash flow in year 10 =  $44500 + $30,000 = $74500

IRR = 8.87%

To determine the value of IRR using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the IRR button and then press the compute button.
