Payback Period

The time it takes for each level of the Rupie Mine to pay itself off based on its improved earnings can be calculated with the following formula.

PaybackPeriod[hr] = BreakEvenTime[hr] + max(BuildTime[hr]-6[hr],0)

where

BreakEvenTime[hr] = (UpgradeCost[rup]+LostIncome[rup]) / (50[rup]/6[hr])

with Lost Income defined as

LostIncome[rup] = (PrevProductionLimit[rup]/6[hr]) * max(BuildTime[hr]-6[hr],0)

The Break Even Time formula calculates the time it takes to recover the cost of the upgrade AND the lost income during construction at that level's increased income rate (always 50). The max() function rejects negative numbers, representing the fact that rupies are only lost when the build time exceeds 6 hours. The Build Time is added in the Payback Period formula to account for the period of time where the Rupie Mine does not produce any rupies after hitting its limit during construction.

The payback period of one level has no effect on the payback period of another level. They are all independent, and some can occur simultaneously.

Also on a side note, if you non-stop build the Rupie Mines with no down time it will only take 1.455 days to recoup the entire Rupie cost of building all of the levels after hitting lvl 30. This includes that since lvl 14 you will have Max Rupies accrued by the time you finish building and must collect them prior to building the next level.
