Happy Trails, a bicycle rental company, is considering purchasing three additional bicycles. Each bicycle would cost them $249.66. At the end of the first year the increase to their revenues would be $140 per bicycle. At the end of the second year the increase to their revenues again would be $140 per bicycle. Thereafter, there are no increases to their revenues. At which of the following interest rates is the sum of the present values of the additional revenues closest to the price of a bicycle? a. 5 percent.
b. 6 percent.
c. 7 percent.
d. 8 percent.

Explanation:

We are to determine the IRR of the purchase

The internal rate of return is a capital budgeting method that is used to determine the profitability of a project.

Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after-tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested

Cash flow in Y0 = -249.66

Cash flow in Y1 = 140

Cash flow in  Y2 = 140

IRR = 8

To determine IRR using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the IRR button and then press the compute button
