    I do not have the Kaplan Exam Kit.

    I assume that the question is asking for the payback period, however if that is the case then I do not believe that you have typed out the question correctly because the payback period is neither 1.5 or 1.9 years!!!

    On the information that you have typed, then it takes exactly 2 years to get back cash of 400,000.
