    Answer: 25%

    Explanation:

    The annual rate of return is calculated by simply dividing the Annual income by the average investment.

    Annual Income

    Annual revenues of $133,500

    Annual expenses of $76,000

    Annual Income = Revenues - Expenses

    Annual Income = $57,500

    Average Investment

    Calculated by dividing the Addition of the beginning and ending (salvage value) Investment figure by 2.

    = (449,000+11,000) / 2

    = $230,000

    Annual Rate of return is therefore,

    = 57,500/230,000

    = 0.25

    = 25%
