Answer: 18.8%

Explanation:

Simple rate of return on investment = Incremental net operating income / investment

Incremental net income = Operating savings - Annual cost

= 145,000 - 420,000/6 years

= $75,000

Net investment = Cost of new machine - salvage value of old

= 420,000 - 21,000

= $399,000

Return on investment = 75,000/399,000

= 18.8%
