Answer: $294,501.375
Explanation:
The internal rate of return is the rate of return at which the net present value of the project is zero.
Net present value = -Investment required + (Net annual cash inflow × Present value factor of an annuity for 8 years at 17%)
$0 = -Investment required + ($70,000 × 4.20716)
Investment required = $70,000 × 4.20716 = $294,501.375
