      Question

        There is a project which involves purchase of a

      machinery that costs Rs.50,000, which has useful life of 3 years, after which it has a scrap value of Rs.10,000. The Machine gives annual profit as shown on the following timeline: What is the Accounting Rate of return of the project in question?
      A 30% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 10% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 20% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 6% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of the above Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ARR = (Average Annual Profit)/ (Average Investment) Average Investment is (50000+10000)/2 = 30000 and Average Profits = (5000+2000+2000)/3 = 3000 Therefore, ARR = 10%          ·         Higher the ARR, better it is. ·         If the project’s ARR is equal or higher to the target ARR of the organisation, accept the project.
