Estimate how many months it takes to recover customer acquisition cost from gross profit. Includes LTV/CAC ratio, churn impact, and SaaS acquisition health.
Shorter CAC payback and higher LTV/CAC give a company more room to scale acquisition safely. Slow payback can strain cash flow.
This estimate is simplified. Use cohort retention and expansion revenue for deeper SaaS modeling.
If CAC is $600 and monthly gross profit is $105, CAC payback is about 5.7 months.
