1. Payback Period and Accounting Rate of Return (with even cash flows)
The Knights Company considers the replacement of some old equipment. The cost of the new equipment is P60,000,

cost of capital of 20%.

(1) Original investment (2) average investment
The Templar Company has an investment opportunity costing P90,000 that is expected to yield the following cash

3. Payback Reciprocal

1. Payback Period and Accounting Rate of Return (with even cash flows)
A. Payback Period
Solution:
Tax expense = Annual cash inflow x tax rate Tax expense = Annual cash inflow x tax rate
= 50,000 x 30% = 50,000 x 30%
= 15,000 = 15,000
Annual Cash inflow - Tax expense Annual Cash inflow - Tax expense
= 50,000 - 15,000 = 50,000 - 15,000
= 35,000 = 35,000
