Answer:

Payback period = 2.5 years

Explanation:

given data

Year    0            1           2           3

cash    -$500  $150   $200   $300

to find out

What is the project's payback

solution

Year        Cash flows   Cumulative Cash flows

0                 500             500

1                  150              350

2                 200             150

3                 300              150

so

Payback period = Last period with a negative cumulative cash flow +(Absolute value of cumulative cash flows at that period ÷ Cash flow after that period)      .........................1

put here value we get

so

Payback period = [tex]2+ \frac{150}{300}[/tex]    

Payback period = 2.5 years
