Answer:

C. 25.5%

Explanation:

Net operating cashflow = (250,000 - 100,000) = 150,000; This is a recurring cashflow; the PMT

Cost of equipment; the PV = 400,000

Next, calculate the rate of return  using Net operating cashflow per year and the equipment cost. You can do this with a financial calculator;

N =5

PMT = 150,000

FV = 0

PV = -400,000

then CPT I/Y = 25.41%

Therefore the return is closest to 25.5%
