Answer:

1 year 5 month

Explanation:

The Project Cash flow Summary is as follows :

Year 0 = -$191,000

Year 1 = $108,000 + $21,000 = $129,000

Year 2 = $108,000 + $21,000 = $129,000

Year 3 = $108,000 + $21,000 = $129,000

Year 4 = $108,000 + $21,000 = $129,000

Year 5 = $108,000 + $21,000 = $129,000

Year 6 = $108,000 + $21,000 + $26,200 = $155,200

Payback Period is the term used to determine how long the future cash flows would equal the amount invested.

$191,000 = $129,000 + 62,000/ $129,000 x 12

The future cash flows will equal $191,000 in 1 year 5 months.
