Calculate the internal rate of return for a machine that costs $500,000 and provides annual revenue of $115,000 per year for 5 years. You can assume all revenue is received once a year at the end of the year.
What will be an ideal response?
To solve this we equate the cost of the machine to the sum of the present value for each annual payment and solve for the interest rate. Using a financial calculator or a spreadsheet we obtain an internal rate of return of 4.85%.
