3 years

Explanation:

The formula to compute the payback period is shown below:

= Initial investment : Net cash flow

where,

Initial investment is $450,000

And, the net cash flow = annual net operating income + depreciation expenses

= $105,000 + $45,000

= $150,000

Now put these values to the above formula

So, the value would equal to

= ($450,000) : ($150,000)

= 3 years
