Cash flow in year 1 = $44,000
Cash flow in year 2 = $38,000
Cash flow in year 3 = $25,000
Cash flow in year 4 = $15,600
IRR = 35.33%
IRR for cash flow A
Cash flow in year 0 = −$ 68,000
Cash flow in year 1 = $30,200
Cash flow in year 2 = 34,200
Cash flow in year 3 = $40,000
Cash flow in year 4 = $24,200
IRR = 31.88%
