According to the evaluation, the project would require an initial investment of 18,000 and would provide equal annual cost savings for five years. Based on a 10 percent discount rate, the project generates a net present value of 1,788. The project is not expected to have any salvage at the end of its five-year life. What is the project’s expected internal rate of return?
