Payback Period

Payback Period is a capital budgeting metric that measures the duration required for the cumulative cash inflows from an investment to equal the initial cash outflow, distinguishing it from other investment appraisal techniques by its focus on liquidity and breakeven time rather than profitability or time value of money.
