    3.7 years

    Explanation:

    Given that,

    Initial investment = $354,000

    Net income = $47,000

    Depreciation = $48,000

    Annual cash flow:

    = Net income + Depreciation

    = $47,000 + $48,000

    = $95,000

    Payback period:

    = Initial investment : Annual cash flow

    = $354,000 : $95,000

    = 3.7 years

    The payback period of the project is closest to 3.7 years.
