Payback Period = |
A + |
B |
C |
Where,
A is the last period number with a negative cumulative
cash flow;
B is the absolute value (i.e. value without negative sign)
of cumulative net cash flow at the end of the period A; and
C is the total cash inflow during the period following
period A
The following table shows the calculations :
Cash Flow A
Year | Cash Flow | Cumulative Cash Flow |
0 | -52000 | -52000 |
1 | 20500 | -31500 |
2 | 27200 | -4300 |
3 | 22500 | 18200 |
4 | 8500 | 26700 |
So, Payback period
= 2 + | - 4,300 | / 22,500
= 2 + 0.19
= 2.19 Years
Cash Flow B
Year | Cash Flow | Cumulative Cash Flow |
0 | -97000 | -97000 |
1 | 22500 | -74500 |
2 | 27500 | -47000 |
3 | 31500 | -15500 |
4 | 243000 | 227500 |
So, Payback period
=3 + | - 15,500 | / 243,000
= 3 + 0.06
= 3.06 Years
The lesser the payback period, the more quicker the investment will get recovered. So, the project with lesser payback period should be accepted, that is, Project A should be selected
