Answer Preview

Payback period is the time frame when sum of annual benefit is equal to investment cost.

Annual benefit of first 4 years = $200 while it is $100 for next 3 years

Total benefit in 6 years = $200 * 4 + $100 * 2 = $1,000

Thus, payback period occurs in exact 6 years.

Option C is correct.
