Answer:
2.62 years
Explanation:
initial investment $374,000
the net cash flow per period = [(net operating revenue x (1 - taxes)] + depreciation expense, since income taxes are 0, then net cash flows = net operating income + depreciation expense = $91,000 + $52,000 = $143,000
the payback period = total investment / net cash flow per period = $374,000 / $143,000 = 2.62 years
the payback period is the time it takes a project to recover its initial investment.
