Year CF    PV factor   PV × CF   Total CF

0 -45,000 1 -45,000   

1 10,000 0.893 8,930 8,930

2 26,000 0.797 20,722 29,652

3 17,500 0.712 12,460 42,112

4 13,200 0.636 8,395 50,507

5 20,000 0.567 11,340 61,847

Discounted payback period=3 years +( 2,888÷8,395)

= 3 + 0.344=3.34 years

Option A is correct which is near to my answer
