Ex: Using payback period method suggest weather following project the expected if expected
pay back period is 4 years.
1.Initial investment= 2,00,000
2.Benefit for 1
st
year= 50,000
3.Benefit for 2
nd
year= 80,000
4.Benefit for 3
rd
year= 1,00,000
5.Benefit for 4
th
year= 1,50,000
If rate of interest is 10%.
Solution: Given data
1)P= 2,00,000 2) i=10% 3) F1= 50,000 4) F2= 80,000 5) F3= 1,00,000 6) F4=
1,50,000
Payback period:
