Answer:

7.29%

Explanation:

The computation of simple rate of return on the new machine is shown below:-

For computing thee simple rate of return first we need to find out the annual accounting return and investment which is here below:-

Annual accounting return = Savings - Cost - Depreciation

= $95,000 -$ 54,000 - (320,000 ÷ 16)

= 95,000 - 54,000 - 20,000

= $21,000

Investment = 320,000 - 32,000

= 288,000

Simple rate of return = Annual accounting return ÷ Investment

= $21,000 ÷ $288,000

= 7.29%
