Answer #1

Discounted payback period=full years until recovery + unrecovered cost at the start of the year/cash flow during the year

                                                    = 1 year + ($9,000 - $5,044.25)/$5,325.40

                                                    = 1 year + 3,355.75/ $5,325.40

                                                    = 1 year + 0.7428

                                                    = 1.7428.

Therefore, the discounted payback period is 1.74 years.

Hence, the answer is option e.
