example,

& P21-38 (similar to) Question Help * Sparow Laundromat is trying to enhance the services it provides to customers, mostly college students. I is looking into the purchase of new high-efficiency washing machines that will allow for the laundry's status to be checked via smartphone. Sparrow estimates the cost of the new equipment at $191,000. The equipment has a useful life of 9 years. Sparrow expects cash fixed costs of $80,000 per year to operate the new machines, as well as cash variable costs in the amount of 5% of revenues. Sparrow evaluates investments using a cost of capital of 10%. (Click the icon to view the Future Value of$1 factors. (Click the icon to view the Future Value of Annuity of $1 factors.)

Calculate the payback period and the discounted payback period for this investment, assuming Sparrow expects to generate $150,000 in incremental revenues every year from the new machines. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) The payback period for the investment assuming uniform net cash inflows is years Requirements 1. Calculate the payback period and the discounted payback period for this investment, asming Sparrow expects to generate 150,000 in incremental revenues every year from the new machines. Assume instead that Sparrow expects an uneven stream of incremental cash revenues from installing the new washing machines. Based on this estimated revenue stream, what are the payback and discounted payback periods for the 2. investment?

Explanation / Answer

Answer 1. Payback period = Intial Investment Amount Invested / Equal Annual Incremental Cash Calculation of Cash Inflow: Incremental Revenue          150,000 Less: Variable Costs - $150,000 X 5%              7,500 Less: Fixed Costs            80,000 Cash Inflow per annum            62,500 Payback period = $191,000 / $62,500 Payback period = 3.06 Years Discounted Payback period Year Intial Invetments Cash Inflow Discount Factor - 10% Discounted Net Cash Inflow Accumulated Net Cash Inflow 0          191,000                   -                                     -   1         62,500                       0.909                      56,813                         56,813 2         62,500                       0.826                      51,625                       108,438 3         62,500                       0.751                      46,938                       155,375 4         62,500                       0.683                      42,688                       198,063 5         62,500                       0.621                      38,813                       236,875 6         62,500                       0.564                      35,250                       272,125 7         62,500                       0.513                      32,063                       304,188 8         62,500                       0.467                      29,188                       333,375 9         62,500                       0.424                      26,500                       359,875 Discounted Cash payback period = 3 Years + (35,625 / 42,688 x 1 Year) Discounted Cash payback period = 3 Years + 0.83 Discounted Cash payback period = 3.83 Years (Approx.)
