1a. Payback period for LIQUID SOAP =4 years

Payback period for BODY LOTION =6 years

1b. GREATEST; LESS

Explanation:

1a.Calculation for the Payback period for liquid soap

LIQUID SOAP

Year   Cash flow  Cumulative Cash flow

1 $170,000 $170,000

2 (150,000+170,000) =320,000

3 (120,000+320,000)=440,000

4 (100,000+440,000)=540,000

5 (70,000+540,000)= 610,000

6 (40,000+610,000)= 650,000

7 (40,000+650,000)= 690,000

8 (30,000+690,000)= 720,000

The Payback period for LIQUID SOAP will  be 4 years

Calculation for the Payback period of body lotion

BODY LOTIO

Year   Cash flow  Cumulative Cash flow

1  $90,000 $90,000

2  (90,000+90,000)=180,000

3  (90,000+180,000)=270,000

4  (90,000+270,000)=360,000

5 (90,000+360,000)=450,000

6 (90,000+450,000)=540,000

7 (90,000+540,000)=630,000

8  (90,000+630,000)=720,000

The Payback period for BODY LOTION will  be 6 years

Based on the calculation above for both liquid soap and body lotion the product offering i will recommend to Lily Products Company, based on the cash payback period for each product line will be LIQUID SOAP because it has a 4 years payback period.

B. The project with the GREATEST net cash flows in the early years of the project life will be favored over the one with the LESS net cash flows in the initial years.
