Home security systems is analyzing the purchase of manufacturing equipment that will cost $54,000. the annual cash inflows for the next three years will be: year cash flow1 $ 27,000 2 25,000 3 20,000

This question does not include what you are required to do. I looked it up on the web and it is asking for the Internal rate of return (IRR)

Explanation:

Internal rate of return used in project evaluations is the rate at which the NPV of a project equals to zero.

You can solve for IRR using a financial calculator and the cashflow "CF " function.  Key in the following inputs;

Initial investment; CF0 = -54,000

Yr1 cashflow inflow ; C01 = 27,000

Yr2 cashflow inflow ; C02 = 25,000

Yr3 cashflow inflow ; C03 = 20,000

Then key in IRR then CPT = 16.792%

Therefore, the Internal rate of return(IRR) for this equipment  is 16.79%

answer; /// the correct answer is (shared); /// good luck

you will have $2593.74 in 10 years if you set aside $1,000 at 10%

you will have $9321.91 in 20 years if you set aside $2000 at 8%

you will have $1469.32 in 5 years if you set aside $1000 at 8%

you will have $1296.87 in 10 years if you set aside $500 at 10%

you will have $239.66 in 15 years if you set aside $100 at 6%

you will have $4660.96 in 20 years if you set aside $1000 at 8%
