Answer:
Project A's payback period = 2.23 years
Project B's payback period = 3.3 years
Explanation:
project A project B
initial investment $290,000 $210,000
useful life 6 years 11 years
yearly cash flow $83,653 + $46,500 $46,000 + $17,727
= $130,153 = $63,727
salvage value $11,000 $15,000
payback period $290,000 / $130,153 $210,000 / $63,727
= 2.23 years = 3.3 years
