A) 2.99. B) 4.21. C) 2.23. D) 3.60.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

The payback period is the amount of time required to get your investment back.

Shorter the payback period, the better it is for the investor.

Given that,

Useful life = 6 years

Copier cost = $7,740

Generate annual cash inflows = $2,150

Therefore,

Payback period = Initial investment ÷ Annual cash inflow

payback period = $7,740 ÷ $2,150

                          = 3.60 years
