| Investment | $122,500 | No price |
| Payback period | 29.4 mo | — |
| Net savings (5 yr) | $127,500 | — |
| ROI (5 yr) | +104% | — |
Mōryō has no listed price, so payback can't be computed. Contact the manufacturer for a quote.
Estimates labor-cost displacement only — not a full total cost of ownership. Actual ROI depends on integration, maintenance, training, downtime, and task fit. Converted currencies are indicative; USD is the price of record.
