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?
How would I do this with the calculator?
PFB the solution.. rate positively
i | ii | iii=i*ii | iv | ||
Year | Cash flow | PVIF @ 11% | Present value | Cumulative present value | |
0 | -5200 | 1 | (5,200.00) | (5,200.00) | |
1 | 2800 | 0.900901 | 2,522.52 | (2,677.48) | |
2 | 3700 | 0.811622 | 3,003.00 | 325.53 | |
3 | 5100 | 0.731191 | 3,729.08 | 4,054.60 | |
4 | 4300 | 0.658731 | 2,832.54 | 6,887.14 | |
Discounted payback period will lie between year 1 and 2 | |||||
Discounted payback period = | 1.89 | Year | |||
1+(2677.48/3003) | |||||
Ans = | 1.89 | Year |
