    (300000-20000) =280000/5 =56000+30000 =860000

    Incremental net opreting income= 120000-86000 so, ARR =34000/300000 =11.33%

    Sorry but samir is wrong.

    The average investment on the Statement of financial position (Balance Sheet) is (300,000 + 20,000) / 2 = 160,000

    The net operating income is 120,000 – 30,000 – 56,000 = 34,000.

    Do the ARR is 34,000/160,000 = 21.25%

    Yes of course!

    It is part of the investment appraisal (capital budgeting) section of the syllabus, which is why it is included in our Course Notes and lectures.
