heys guys can anyone of you tell me if the discounted payback period still forms part of the F9 syllabus for the december 2010 exams… I asking so because the discounted payback period isn’t present in the OT notes.
I hope one of you do help me… I don’t want not to learn this part of investment appraisal and it does come out in the exams!!!

check syllabus on ACCA website
October 3, 2010 at 7:26 am #68959I checked the syllabus but it is not mentioned in it…. it only says investment appraisal techniques!!
October 3, 2010 at 11:55 am #68960Payback period is in the December 2010 syllabus https://www.accaglobal.com/pubs/students/acca/exams/f9/syllabus/f9_syll_sg.pdf
October 3, 2010 at 1:02 pm #68961I think by implication it could effectively be in the syllabus as it combines the net present value discounting technique with the payback technique.It therefore gets rid of one of the payback technique’s disadvantages (that it does not consider the time value of money) but the others remain.
