Explanation / Answer
Internal rate of return factor = initial investment / annual Net cash inflow
Internal rate of return factor = 650,000 / 95,000 = 6.842
Now we will find the factor 6.842 in present value annuity of $ 1 table for N = 10 years
For 6 % factor is 7.360
For 8 % factor is 6.710
So the 6.842 lies in between
So it is between 6% and 8%
so the correct answer is B
