Answer:

It will take 1.97 years to payback the machine.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

It will cost $7,500 to acquire a cotton candy cart. Cart sales are expected to be $3,800 a year for four years.

We need to determine the amount of time required to payback the machine.

Year 1= 3,800 - 7,500= -3,700

Year 2= 3,800 - 3,700= 100

3,700/3,800= 0.97

It will take 1.97 years to payback the machine.
