This equation is used to quickly determine the length of time it will take to recoup the initial amount invested on a project or investment.

EXAMPLE

BCD housing company invests $800,000 in a real estate construction. It expects a monthly return of &12,000. Calculate the Payback period for the company.

The annual return is $144,000 (i.e. $12,000 x 12) . Therefore the payback period will be $800000/$144000 = 5.556 years.
