10 202980 80000 282980 0.322 91120 0.270 76405

Present value of cash flows 1599121 1476317

less: initial investment [800000] [800000]

NPV 799121 676317

NPV is positive so accepted the project

IRR = lower rate + lower npv / Lower npv - Higher NPV * difference in factor

= 12 + 799121 / 799121 + 676317 * 2

= 12 + 1.08 = 13.08%

IRR is less than 30%

9 282980 2546832

10 282980 2829814

Payback period = 2+234040 / 282980

= 2 + 0.83 = 2.83 years

Accounting rate of return :

ARR = average income / original investment
