Time Time
• In the above example, the net cashflow is zero at time 4 so the payback period is 4
years.

Jargon: discounted payback period
• The payback period doesn’t mean much because we don’t keep money in a sock in
ground and it does have a time value.
• Ie the payback period doesn’t show when, say a bank account (starting with nothing)
would go back “into the black” because it ignores the interest paid.
• The discounted payback period is the time it takes for you to “get back in the black”,
allowing for a interest, assuming that you any cash coming in immediately reduces your
loan.

Time Time
• In the above example, an account starting with zero is back to zero just after time 5
so the discounted payback period is just over 5 years.

Jargon: discounted payback period
• The present value of a bank balance of zero is still zero!
• So, in practice, we can just as well answer:
“When is the present value of the cashflows first zero?” as
“When does the bank balance actually get back to zero?”
• So, in practice, to calculate the discounted payback period, we just calculate the
discounted value of the cashflows, and find out when they first add up to zero.
PV (value at time 0) of cashflows PV (at time 0) of total cashflows to
date = PV of "account"

• These charts are just the “discounted” versions of the charts on the previous slide.
This time interest is allowed for by discounting, rather than by rolling the amounts up
