3. The term payback period refers to the
amount of time it takes to recover the
cost of an investment. Simply put, it
is the length of time an investment
reaches a breakeven point.
MEANING
5. ADVANTAGES
Procedure is simple
Helpful for small business
Faster reinvestment of earnings
Faster reinvestment of earnings
6. DISADVANTAGES
Ignores the time value of money
Not Realistic
Ignores profitability
Investments Are Not Appropriately Evaluated
7. HOW TO CALCULATE PAYBACK
PERIOD
Payback period is calculated by dividing the cost of the investment by the
annual cash flow until the cumulative cash flow is positive, which is the
payback year. Payback period is generally expressed in years.
There are two easy basis payback period formulas:
Payback Period Formula – Averaging Method
Payback Formula – Subtraction Method
8. Payback Period Formula – Averaging Method
Payback Period= Intial investment
yearly cashflow using the averagemethod
Payback Period = initial Investment/
For Example: If a company makes an investment of $1,000,000 in new
equipment which is expected to generate $250,000 in revenue per year.
What will be the calculation?
Solution: $1,000,000 / $250,000 = 4-year payback period
For example: If they have another option to invest $1,000,000 into
equipment which they expect to generate $280,000 in revenue per year.
What will be the calculation?
Solution: $1,000,000 / $280,000 = 3.57-year payback period
9. Payback Formula – Subtraction Method
Payback Period = The last year negative cashflow
+(amount of cash flow at the end off the year
Cash flow during the year after that year
For example: A company is considering making a $550,000 investment
in new equipment. The expected cash flows are as follows : Year 1 =
$75,000Year 2 = $140,000Year 3 = $200,000Year 4 = $110,000Year 5 =
$60,000
Solution: :Year 0 : -$550,000Year 1 : -$550,000 + $75,000 = -$475,000Year
2 : -$475,000 + $140,000 = -$335,000Year 3 : -$335,000 + $200,000 = -
$135,000Year 4 : -$135,000 + $110,000 = -$25,000Year 5 : -$25,000 +
$60,000 = $35,000Year 4 is the last year with negative cash flow, so the
payback period equation is:4 + ($25,000 / $60,000) = 4.42
