Legend Service Center just purchased an automobile hoist for $32,000. The hoist has an 8-year life and an estimated salvage value of $3,600. Installation costs and freight charges were $3,600 and $800, respectively. Legend uses straight-line depreciation. The new hoist will be used to replace mufflers and tires on automobiles.

The cost of a muffler is $39, and the labor cost to install a muffler is $13. (a) Compute the cash payback period for the new hoist.
