Answer:
True
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Purchasing cost of the machine = $21,000
Income generated = $2,000
Annual net cash flows from the machine = $3,500
Now,
The Payback period = [ Purchasing cost ] ÷ [ Annual net cash flows ]
or
Payback period = $21,000 ÷  $3,500
or
Payback period = 6 years
Since,
the calculated payback period and the mentioned payback period in the question are equal
Hence,
the given statement is true
