The answer is C) 5 years
Most companies start as small start-ups with little in funding. In the early years of a business, the founders would be most involved in only 2 things, either selling or manufacturing/development.
The early years of a business is linked to survival and growth. It is natural for the founders to not be able to focus on operational excellence.
However, as the company starts to make a profit, the founders are able to work on developing new processes to streamline everything and make it more manageable.
It can take up to 5 years before a company can reach organizational excellence.

Answer:
Principal payment =  $27,505.00  
Explanation:
<em>Loan Amortization: A loan repayment method structured such that a series of equal periodic installments will be paid for certain number of periods to offset both the loan principal amount and the accrued interest.</em>
The principal repayment in year 1 = Annual payment - Interest payment in year 1
<em>Interest payment in year = Interest rate × Principal Amount</em>
                                           =8% × 164,000
                                          =  $13,120.00  
Principal payment = $40,635 - 13,120 =  $27,505.00  
Principal payment =  $27,505.00
