Following on from the information provided in example 4:

(a) Calculate the internal rate of return of Project A. Use the project NPV of $\$ 73,620$ at $10 \%$ from example 4 , and calculate a second NPV at a $20 \%$ discount rate, before using the IRR formula.

(b) Calculate the internal rate of return of Project B.
You are given the following:
At $10 \%$ the NPV was $\$ 33,310$
At $20 \%$ the NPV is $\$ 8,510$
At $30 \%$ the NPV is $(\$ 9,150)$
