Accounting

Applecross Dental Services is investigating expanding its operations by acquiring additional teeth cleaning equipment. The equipment would cost $154,000 and management has estimated that it would result in net cash inflows of $13,400 per year. The equipment would have a 15-year useful life with an expected salvage value of $14,000.(Ignore income taxes.)
Required:
1. Compute the equipments IRR. (Hint: Use Microsoft Excel to calculate the discount factor(s).)(Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answer to 1 decimal place.)
2-a. Assume that instead of $13,400, the salvage value in 15 years for the new equipment will be $0. Compute the IRR under this new assumption. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answer to 1 decimal place.)
2-b. This part of the question is not part of your Connect assignment.
