three years.
Depreciation is $4,000,$2,500, and $1,500 in years 1,2, and
3, respectively. The project generates pretax income of $2,000 each year. The
pretax income already deducts the depreciation expense. If the tax rate is
25percent, what is the project's average accounting return(AAR)? (44.44%)
19. Consider the following cash flows for project A.

(The equation for the IRR of the project is:
0=–$504+$2,862/(1+IRR)–$6,070/(1+IRR)^2+$5,700/(1+IRR)^3–$2,000/(1 + IRR)^4
From trial and error, IRRs of 25%, 33.33%, 42.86%, and 66.67% are found.)
