a. What is the project payback period if the initial cost is $1,540?
b. What is the project payback period if the initial cost is $5,082?
c. What is the project payback period if the initial cost is $10,780?
Payback period = Initial cost / Annual cash inflows
A) Payback period = 1540 / 770 = 2.00 years

C) Payback period = 10780 / 770 = 14.00 years
