Question

The Golf Range is considering adding an additional driving range to its facility. The range would cost $76,000, would be depreciated on a straight line basis over its 7-year life, and would have a zero salvage value. The anticipated income from the project is $34,000 a year with $14,400 of that amount being variable cost. The fixed cost would be $16,200. The firm believes that it will earn an additional $13,000 a year from its current operations should the driving range be added. The project will require $2,000 of net working capital, which is recoverable at the end of the project. What is the internal rate of return on this project at a tax rate of 34 percent?
A. 7.53 percent
B. 9.29 percent
C. 11.47 percent
D. 12.68 percent
E. 14.04 percent
