Accounting rate of return                   15.3%         9.9%

= Net income/Initial investment cost * 100

Annual Cash inflows:

Net income                                       $53,400   $34,680

Annual depreciation                           87,500    116,667

Annual expected net cash flows   $140,500  $151,347
