This question will require you to use Excel's IRR function

This question will require you to use Excel’s IRR function. A firm
invests $200,000 in a project today. It receives $20,000 a year from now, $50,000 two years from now, and $195,000 three years from now and nothing more. What is the IRR of the project?
The format of Excel’s IRR function is =IRR(aX:aY,Z)
Where aX:aY are cells aX to aY which have cash flows entered into them. The initial investment is a negative cash flow so it should have a negative sign.
Z is a “guess” IRR, usually you can set to 0.1 (which is 10%).
Answer should be a number given as a %. That is, for example 3.18% should be answered as 3.18 rather than 3.18% or 0.0318

Suppose a stock will pay $10 per share dividend in one year’s time.
The dividend is projected to grow at 8% the following year, and then 4% per year indefinitely after that.
To clarify, dividend at beginning of year 1 (that is, one year from today) is:
$10
Beginning of year 2 (2 years from today) is:
$10 * 1.08
Beginning of year 3 (3 years from today) is:
$10 * 1.08 * 1.04
