Answer:

14%

Explanation:

Let IRR from machine be represented with i

Now, $4,120 * Cumulative PV factor (i, 6 periods) = $16,000

Cumulative PV factor (i, 6 periods) = $16,000 / $4,120

Cumulative PV factor (i, 6 periods) = 3.883

Now, we refer to PV factor table, the PV Factor (3.883) falls nearest to i =14%. (See proof in the attached table as attached below)

So therefore, IRR = 14%

So, the machine's internal rate of return is closest to 14%.

Snezhnost [94]

The benefit enjoyed by a third party that is not directly involved in the production or consumption of a good or service is called externality.

What does the term externality mean?

Externalities are situations when the production or consumption of products and services has an impact on other people that results in costs or advantages that are not accounted for in the pricing charged for the goods and services being offered.

What impact do externalities have on the economy?

When people, households, and businesses fail to internalise the indirect costs or advantages of their economic interactions, externalities pose serious issues for economic policy. Inefficient market outcomes are the result of the resulting wedges between social and private costs or profits.
