Answer:

8.3333 years or 8 years and 4 months.

Explanation:

Initial cost = $50,000

Amount recovered on the investment per year = $10,000 - $4,000 = $6,000

The simple payback period is given by dividing the initial cost by the amount recovered per year:

The simple payback period is 8.3333 years or 8 years and 4 months.
