Ask the Tutor ACCA MA
IRR
9y ago#1But the question does not ask you for the IRR !!!!
It asks for the Accounting Rate of Return, which is the average profit per year after depreciation (34,000) as a % of the average investment (160,000).
sir,
Is this ARR is included in F2 syllabus? I can't find this topic. Can you explain how to get 34,000 & 160,000?
9y ago#3The profit before depreciation = 90,000 per year
The depreciation = (300,000 - 20,000)/5 = 56,000 per year.
So the profit = 90,000 - 56,000 = 34,000
The average investment = (300,000 + 20,000) / 2 = 160,000
