Answer:

14%

Explanation:

Let IRR from machine be represented with i

Now, $4,120 * Cumulative PV factor (i, 6 periods) = $16,000

Cumulative PV factor (i, 6 periods) = $16,000 / $4,120

Cumulative PV factor (i, 6 periods) = 3.883

Now, we refer to PV factor table, the PV Factor (3.883) falls nearest to i =14%. (See proof in the attached table as attached below)

So therefore, IRR = 14%

So, the machine's internal rate of return is closest to 14%.
