Solution

In this case we need to convert Cash flows to profits like the following: Profits = Cash inflows + depreciation. Here depreciation is (40000/5) = 8000. So, average profits = 16000 and the average investment = 20000. ARR= Average profits/ Average investment. Therefore, ARR = 16000/20000 = 80%
