    After 2 years they will have got back 100,000, so they need an extra 60,000.

    In the third year the receive 80,000 and so if the cash is received evenly throughout the year, it will take 60,000/80,000 years (or 9 months)

    So in total 2 years 9 months.

    It is the normal assumption we make when calculating the payback period.
