Cumulative Cash Inflows 
	Year
	Cash Flow 
	Cumulative Cash Flow

	$1,600
	$1,600

	3
	$2,300
	$5,800
	4
	$1,400
	$7,200
Till Year 3, total Cash Inflows are $5,800. Cost is $6,400. Additional cash flows required $600 ($6,400 - $5,800). 
Thus, Payback Period is = 3 years + ($600/$1,400)
                                           = 3.43 years
Payback Period is3.43 years

If Initial Cost is $7,000:
In Year 1, Discounted Cash Inflows are $3,684.21. Additional cash flows required $3,315.79 ($7,000 - $3,684.21). 
Thus, Discounted Payback Period is = 1 year + ($3,315.79/$4,078.18)
                                           = 1.81 years
Thus, Discounted Payback Period is 1.81 years
If Initial Cost is $10,000:
Till Year 2, Discounted Cash Inflows are $7,762.39. Additional cash flows required $2,237.61 ($10,000 - $7,762.39). 
Thus, Discounted Payback Period = 2 years + ($2,237.61/$4,117.33)
                                           = 2.54 years
Discounted Payback Period is 2.54 years
If Initial Cost is $13,000:
Till Year 3, Discounted Cash Inflows are $11,879.71.
