A machine has an investment cost of $60,000 at time 0. The present values (at time 0) of the expected net cash inflows from the machine over its useful life are:

Discount rate             Present value of cash inflows

10%                                        $64,600

15%                                        $58,200

20%                                       $52,100

What is the internal rate of return (IRR) of the machine investment?

A

Below 10%

B

Between 10% and 15%

C

Between 15% and 20%

D

Over 20%

Investment                                                         (60,000)

PV of cash inflow                                                64,600

NPV @ 10%                                                        4,600

Investment                                                         (60,000)

PV of cash inflow                                               58,200

NPV @ 15%                                                       (1,800)

The IRR of the machine investment is therefore between 10% and 15% because the NPV falls from $4,600 at 10% to -$1,800 at 15%. Therefore at some point between 10% and 15% the NPV = 0. When the NPV = 0, the internal rate of return is reached.
