Answer:

12%

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation for the internal rate of return if the company buys this machine

Using this formula

IRR = Initial investment/Annual Cash flow

Where,

Initial investment =$47,907

Annual Cash flow =$19,946

Let plug in the formula

IRR= $47,907/$19,946

=2.402

Using PV factor table = 2.402

IRR = 12%

Therefore internal rate of return if the company buys this machine will be 12%
