Answer:

IRR for A= 35.33%

IRR for B = 31.88%

Step-by-step 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 using a finacial calculator :

IRR for cash flow A

Cash flow in year 0 = −$ 68,000

Cash flow in year 1 = $44,000

Cash flow in year 2 = $38,000

Cash flow in year 3 = $25,000

Cash flow in year 4 = $15,600

IRR = 35.33%

IRR for cash flow A

Cash flow in year 0 = −$ 68,000

Cash flow in year 1 = $30,200

Cash flow in year 2 = 34,200

Cash flow in year 3 = $40,000

Cash flow in year 4 = $24,200

IRR = 31.88%

To find the 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
