Nelson Corp is considering the purchase of a new piece of equipment. The cost savings from the equipment would result in an annual increase in cash flow of $100,000.

Answer:

14.74 %

Explanation:

Accounting rate of return = Average Profits / Average Investment x 100

therefore,

Accounting rate of return = ($100,000 - $65,000) / $237,500 x 100

                                           = 14.74 %

where,

Average Investment = ( initial investment + scrape value ) ÷ 2
