    Hello Mr Moffat,

    The answer of this Sleepon question states that the project duration is the amount of time a project takes to recover half of the present value of the project. Would you please help me to understand why it is just a half?

    Many thanks,

    Hanhvn

    It is actually only approximately half. You cannot be asked to explain why in the exam, and to explain it would take far too long (and be too mathematical 🙂 )
