    26.33 months or 2 years, six months and 10 days

    Explanation:

    The payback period is simply the amount of time needed to recover the initial investment. The payback period doesn't consider any discount rate to the cash flows generated by the project (this discounted payback period discounts the cash flows).

    we divide the total investment by the monthly cash flows = $79,000 / $3,000 = 26.33 months or to be more exact 2 years, six months and 10 days.
