Payback period is the time required for the operating cash inflows to recover the initial investment in a project.
Here, initial investment = $50050
Cumulative cash flows after year 1 = $12000
Cumulative cash flows after year 2 = $12000 + $12000 = $24000
Cumulative cash flows after year 3 = $12000 + $12000 + $12000 = $36000
Cumulative cash flows after year 4 = $12000 + $12000 + $12000 + $12000 = $48000
Cumulative cash flows after year 5 = $12000 + $12000 + $12000 + $12000 + $12000 = $60000
The cumulative cash flows reach the initial investment amount of $50050 sometime in year 5.
Therefore the payback period would be more than 4 years and less than 5 years. Steps in the calculation of payback period are given below:
a. Amount of cash flow in year 5 needed to reach $50050 cumulative cash flows:
$50050 - $48000 (year 4's cumulative cash flow amount) = $2050
b. Percentage of year 5 until cumulative amount of $50050 is reached:
$2050 / $12000 = 0.171
c. Payback period = 4 + 0.171 = 4.171 years
