a) Determine the payback period of Project A and state whether it is acceptable?
b) Determine the payback period of Project B and state whether it is acceptable?
Solution
Project A
Io=50000
CF1=10000
CF2=14000
CF3=18000
CF4=10000
CF5=11000
=3+2000/10000
=3.2
Payback period for Project A investment is (3.2) years
Project B
Io=50000
CF1=12000
CF2=12000
CF3=12000
CF4=12000
CF5=12000
=4+2000/10000
=4.166
Payback period for Project B investment is (4.166) years
So the project A is acceptable because its payback period is less then the project B
