There is a difference between calculating planned investments and comparing change initiatives. Read the paragraph 'Return on Investment'.

supporting the initiative will cost $30.000 for years two and three. Does it mean supporting cost is %30,000 for both year 2 AND year 3? I confused

Here's the logic behind this: You invested 200.000 initially plus 30.000 second year and 30.000 third year Total invested: 260.000 Revenue yearly 150.000...in three years 150.000 x3 = 450.000 total revenue 450.000 Difference between invested and gained -260.000 + 450.000 = 190.000 hence, Money gained /money invested = 190.000 / 260.000 = 0,73 *100 = 73%
