Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer is: 8; 5

The rate of return equals 8% and the interest rate is 5% (discount rate)

Step-by-step explanation:

To decide whether or not one project should be taken the rate of return of the project's cash flows should be larger than the discount rate (in this case the interest rate). If the discount rate was larger, the present value of the project would be negative, therefore the project should be discarded.
