pay-back period
"the length of time required for an investment to recover its initial outlay in terms of profits or savings"
In practice, decision-makers deal with risks by applying high interest rates or requiring very short payback periods. Conventionally, intervention effectiveness studies do not deal with risk, other than to conduct sensitivity analyses or to calculate different scenarios to address uncertainty.
