Answer #1

Note : As per HomeworkLib honor code only one question can be asked at a time as it is not mentioned which question is to be answered so only 12th question is answered hope you understand

Answer 12: 9%

Calculated as

Initial investment = $349278

Annual cash inflow = $138000

Present value factor = 349278/138000 = 2.531

From the table given we can trace that for three years life present value factor of 2.531 lies under 9%

Period 8% 9% 10%
1 0.926 0.917 0.909
2 1.783 1.759 1.736
3 2.577 2.531 2.487

hence answer is 9%
