Calculate the Payback Period                                               &nbsp


Calculate the Payback Period                              
                              
The payback period is the length of time required for the cash to be coming in from an investment                               
to equal the amount of cash originally spent when the investment was acquired.                              
                              
                              
Assumptions                              
                              
1   Purchase price of equipment                       $1,200,000   
                              
2   Useful life of equipment                       12   years
                              
3   Revenue the machine will generate per year                       $15,000   
                              
4   Direct operating costs associated with earning                          
   the revenue                       $250,000   
                              
5   Depreciation Expense per year                       $100,000   
                              
                              
                              
Using the above five assumptions, calculate how many years it will take to recoup the                               
original investment.                              
                              
   Step 1   Find the machine's expected net income                      
                              
           Revenue                  
           Less:                  
           Direct Operating Costs                  
           Depreciation               $- 0   
                       Net Income   $- 0   
                              
                              
   Step 2   Find the net annual cash inflow the machine is                      
       expected to generate (convert net income to cash                      
       basis)                      
                              
           Net Income               $- 0   
           Add back Depreciation                  
               Annual Net Cash Inflow           $- 0   
                              
   Step 3   Compute the payback period                      
                              
           Investment   =       =      
           Net Annual       $- 0           
           Cash Inflow
