a) 48.95%

b) 22.05%

c) 14.21%

d) 10.48%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Cost of project today i.e present value = $45,000

Future value = $330,000

Now,

IRR = - 1

Here,

n = Number of years for which cash flow occurs

thus,

a) The future cash flow occurs in 5 years

n = 5

IRR = - 1

= 0.4895

or

= 48.95%

b) The future cash flow occurs in 10 years

n = 10

IRR = - 1

= 0.2205

or

= 22.05%

c) The future cash flow occurs in 10 years

n = 15

IRR = - 1

= 0.1421

or

= 14.21%

d) The future cash flow occurs in 10 years

n = 15

IRR = - 1

= 0.1048

or

= 10.48%
