Answer: 27%

Explanation:

The Average rate of return is calculated by;

= Estimated Average Annual income / Average Investment

Estimated Average annual income = Total income/ years income is accrued

= 402,300/5

= $‭80,460‬

Average Investment = (Initial cost + Residual value) / 2

= (524,500 + 71,500) / 2

= $‭298,000‬

Average rate of return = 80,460/298,000

= 0.27

= 27%
