Explanation / Answer

for A

Net flows each year = 15000 - 6200 = 8800

investment cost = 8800/1.1 + ... 8800/1.1^10 = 54,072.19


for B

141250 = x/1.12 + .. x / 1.12^10

x = 24999.01

37000 - outflows = 24999.01

outflows = $12,000.99


for C

92598 = ( 20,000 - 6200 ) * ( 1/x + .... + 1/x^10 )

( 1/x - 1/x^11 )/ ( 1 - 1/x ) = 6.71

x = 1.08

Hence its 8%
