2. Calculating Payback [LO2] An investment project
provides cash inflows of $745 per year for eight years. What
is the project payback period if the initial cost is $1,700?
What if the initial cost is $3,30o? What if it is $6,100?
4. Calculating Discounted Payback (LO3) An investment project has annual cash inflows of $4,200, $5.300, $6.100, and
$7,400, and a discount rate of 14%. What is the discounted payback period for these cash flows if the initial cost is $7.000?
What if the initial cost is $10,000? What if it is $13,000?
4. Calculating Discounted Payback [LO3] An
investment project has annual cash inflows of $2,800,
$3,700, $5,100, and $4,300, for the next four years,
respectively. The discount rate is 11 percent. What is the
discounted payback period for these cash flows if the initial
cost is $5,200? What if the initial cost is $6,40o? What if it is
$10,400?
