Okay and welcome back again to MBAbullshit.com.
[7]
Alright?
[9]
So our topic for this video is payback period, alright?
[15]
So the topic for this video is payback period.
[21]
What is a payback period and how to find the payback period?
[27]
So remember you can go back MBAbullshit.com for more help on lots of cool different business
[37]
topics.
[38]
Okay?
[40]
So for example, okay for example, you invest one hundred dollars on a business and the
[45]
free cash flow or the earnings, okay?
[48]
If you haven鈥檛 watched my video yet about free cash flow, don鈥檛 worry.
[57]
Imagine that free cash flow is similar to income or profit or earnings, okay?
[65]
So what if you invest one hundred dollars in a business and you earn cash or cash flow
[78]
of forty dollars in the first year, thirty dollars in the second year, thirty dollars
[83]
in the third year, twenty-four dollars in the fourth, and fifteen dollars in the fifth
[90]
year.
[91]
Okay?
[92]
When is your payback?
[93]
Okay?
[94]
When is your payback?
[95]
How long is your payback period?
[97]
Okay, to do this you need to do a special step wherein you find out the collected accumulative
[107]
or accumulated or total collected payback.
[112]
Now how do you do that?
[114]
It鈥檚 actually very simple.
[117]
In year one, it鈥檚 the same.
[119]
Okay?
[120]
You earn forty dollars in year one so your total collected payback is forty dollars.
[128]
For year two, your collected payback is the cash flow from year one plus the cash flow
[137]
from year two.
[138]
So that is seventy dollars.
[141]
Okay?
[142]
Forty plus thirty equals seventy.
[145]
Alright?
[148]
Now what is the collected payback in year three?
[151]
Well same thing forty plus thirty, forty in the first year plus thirty in the second year
[158]
plus thirty in the third year.
[161]
So your collected payback over here is one hundred dollars.
[167]
Forty plus thirty plus thirty equals one hundred.
[171]
Okay?
[172]
You do the same thing in the forth year, okay?
[175]
Forty plus thirty plus thirty plus twenty-four equals one hundred twenty-four, and you do
[183]
the same thing for the fifth year.
[185]
Forty plus thirty plus thirty plus twenty-four plus fifteen equals one hundred thirty-nine
[192]
dollars.
[193]
So the question now is when is your payback period?
[198]
Well, the important thing here is to look at the collected payback column and not anymore
[206]
the cash flow column, and you will find that you already have payback here.
[213]
Okay?
[214]
At year three.
[216]
Why?
[217]
Because at year three, you already have one hundred dollars which is the same as your
[226]
one hundred dollar investment over there.
[232]
Okay?
[236]
So we can now say that your payback period is three years.
[241]
Why is it three years?
[242]
Because you get your payback, okay, on year three.
[248]
So you get your payback in year three that means your payback period is three years.
[254]
Alright?
[255]
So now why is this important?
[258]
Why do we need to know the payback period of an investment?
[263]
Well it鈥檚 very simple.
[265]
The rule of thumb or the basic rule of thumb is that the shorter the payback period is
[272]
then the better it is for you, okay?
[276]
So if you鈥檙e a businessman then you want a shorter payback period because that means
[282]
that you get your money back faster.
[286]
Okay?
[287]
If you have a longer payback period then it takes a longer time to get your money back.
[295]
Okay?
[296]
So now that you know the basic concept of payback period, you are ready for our next
[303]
video on discounted payback period which is actually better for business students and
[310]
is also better to use this in real companies.
[314]
Okay?
[315]
So discounted payback period is better.
