The payback period of making an investment in a retail shopping mall is 7 years.
Option A is the correct answer.
A payback period is one of the techniques of capital budgeting that tells about how much time the investment amount got recovered by the company.
Given values:
Cost of investment: $630,000
Yearly cash flows: $90,000
Computation of payback period of the retail investment:
[tex]\rm\ Payback \rm\ Period=\frac{\rm\ Cost \rm\ of \rm\ Investment}{\rm\ Yearly \rm\ Cash \rm\ flows} \\\rm\ Payback \rm\ Period=\frac{\$630,000}{\$90,000} \\\rm\ Payback \rm\ Period=7\rm\ years[/tex]
Therefore, when the retail investment of $630,000 made with annual cash flows of $90,000 provides a payback period of 7 years.
