a.$15,000
b.$21,300
c.$5,325
d.$8,700

 

 

 

Proposals A and B each cost $600,000 and have five-year lives. Proposal A is expected to provide equal annual net cash flows of $159,000, while the net cash flows for Proposal B are as follows:

Year 1   $150,000
Year 2   140,000
Year 3   110,000
Year 4   150,000
Year 5   50,000

Determine the cash payback period for each proposal. Round your answers to two decimal places, if necessary.

Proposal A:  __ years
Proposal B:  __ years
