The internal rate of return (IRR) is the discount rate that makes the net present value (NPV) of the cash flows equal to zero. The present value of the annuity factor that makes the investment of $113,000 equal to the present value of $20,000 per year for 10 years is closest to 5.650, which corresponds to a 12% rate.
