- The Umbrella company is planning to purchase a substance known as Serum A. Serum A would cost $45,000 and would have a useful life of 10 years with zero salvage value. The expected annual cash flow of the serum is $9,500. Management wants a 20% return on all investments. Use the provided present value tables for this question. If you use excel or a different table your answer will be marked incorrect by the quiz autograder. Required: 1. Compute the internal rate of return (IRR) for Serum X. Your answer should be in numberical form (DO NOT include the percentage sign) and will be enter as between two percentages o Between % % and 2.
