Payback - how long will it take to recover the investment?
This method identifies how long it will take the project to repay the initial investment cost.
Payback = income required to make cumulative +
net after cumulative + / 12
(inc req to make cumu +) / (net after cumu + / 12)
Then add on the figure to the years
Notes
- It is not a measure of profitability.
- It is an especially important method for businesses that have poor liquidity because they do not have the financial resources to have their money tied up in long payback projects.
