An investment project has annual cash inflows of $3,300, $4,200, $5,400, and $4,600, for the next four years, respectively. The discount rate is 15 percent.

a) What is the discounted payback period for these cash flows if the initial cost is $6,000? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

b) What is the discounted payback period for these cash flows if the initial cost is $8,100? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

c) What is the discounted payback period for these cash flows if the initial cost is $11,100? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
