Question

An investment project has annual cash inflows of $3,400, $4,300, $5,500, and $4,700, and a discount rate of 13 percent.

What is the discounted payback period for these cash flows if the initial cost is $6,100? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answer to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))

What is the discounted payback period for these cash flows if the initial cost is $8,200? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answer to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))

What is the discounted payback period for these cash flows if the initial cost is $11,200? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answer to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))

An investment project costs $10,000 and has annual cash flows of $2,820 for six years.

What is the discounted payback period if the discount rate is 0 percent? (Enter 0 if the project never pays back. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))

What is the discounted payback period if the discount rate is 4 percent? (Enter 0 if the project never pays back. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))

What is the discounted payback period if the discount rate is 19 percent? (Enter 0 if the project never pays back. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places. (e.g., 32.16))

An investment project has annual cash inflows of $3,400, $4,300, $5,500, and $4,700, and a discount rate of 13 percent.
