Palmer Corp. is considering the purchase of a new piece of equipment. The cost savings from the equipment would result in an annual increase in net income after tax of $100,000. The equipment will have an initial cost of $400,000 and have a 7-year life. If the salvage value of the equipment is estimated to be $75,000, what is the accounting rate of return?

25%

Explanation:

Accounting rate of return =( Net income from investment ÷ Cost of investment ) × 100

Net income from investment = $100,000

Cost of investment = $400,000

Required rate of return = ($100,000 / $400,000 ) × 100

= 0.25 × 100

= 25%
