Answer: $‭1,645,379.41‬

Explanation:

The deficiency attached to the Discounted Payback period is that it stops recognizing cashflows after the project is paid off.

Year 1 discounted cash flow = 2,000,000/(1 + 10%) = $1,818,181.82

Year 2 discounted cashflow = 4,250,000 / (1 + 10%)² = $3,512,396.69

Year 3 discounted cashflow = 1,750,000/( 1 + 10%)³ = $1,314,800.90

Amount that Discounted Payback period will not recognize is;

= Cumulated discounted cash flow - Initial cost

= 1,818,181.82 + 3,512,396.69 + 1,314,800.90 - 5,000,000

= $‭1,645,379.41‬
