Cash inflows associated with this investment are projected to beas follows: $30,000, $35,000, and $43,200. (Ignore taxes.) This scenario leads to an estimated internalrate of return (IRR) of 19.44%. Assume that the minimum required rate of return is 15%.Required1. Demonstrate, using the IRR function in Excel, that the IRR on this proposed investment is indeed19.44%.2. Calculate the year-by-year return on investment (ROI) on this proposed investment. For this…
