The payback period for the investment made by Oriental Corporation would be <u>C. 4 years</u>.

<h3>What is the payback period?</h3>

The payback period is a capital budgeting tool that considers the length of time it takes to recover the investment cost using periodic cash inflows.

The technique shows the length of time an investment reaches a breakeven point (equal costs with equal cash inflows).

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Investment cash = $200,000

Annual net cash flows = $50,000

Life span = 10 years

Salvage value = $0

Discount rate = 10%

Payback period = 4 years ($200,000/$50,000)

Thus, the payback period for the investment made by Oriental Corporation would be <u>C. 4 years</u>.

Explanation:

Until consideration has moved from Matthew to Tom the validity of the agreement/Contract remains inconclusive.

Considering his Account is not funded means he has no valid title to the Balls, he is merely in possession of the Balls but not the Owner.

Tom can sue demanding a return of the Balls irrespective of Matthew having sold them to Aaron.

Another illustration could be given of a thief who sells off a property. Inspite of the Buyer being unaware, because the thief has a voidable title it makes the transaction invalid.
