    -11,600

    +9,100/1+IRR

    + 10,100 / (1+IRR) ^2

    =0

    11,600=9100 / (1+IRR) + 10,100 / (1+IRR) ^2

    IRR = 0.404 = 40.4%

    If the required rate of return is 12% the project should be accepted because it is lower than the IRR. This means that the return that the investors require from the project is lower than what the project actually returns, so when actual returns are more than required returns we should accept the project

    Explanation:

    Set NPV to 0 in order to find the IRR, IRR is the rate at which the future cash flows are discounted and then the original payment is subtracted from them, so that the npv comes to be 0
