Answer:

18,000 per year

Step-by-step explanation:

investment 72,000

payback in four year thus: the project pays itself in four year.

Also as the expected annual cash savings are equal between years

we con conclude:


(investment)/(regular \: cash \: flow) = payback

72,000/ cash flow = 4

cash flow = 72,000 / 4 = 18,000

we are considering the cash savings adn depreciatin is not a monetary concept. We must ignore depreciation.
