Unfortunately for the previous owner, he had purchased it three years earlier at a price of $1,640,000. What was his annual rate of return on this painting? (A negative value should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
