Answer:

Location C costs least to the company as it only costs $461,160

Explanation:

We will evaluate all the three proposals

Location A Cost = $500,000

Location B

Down payment = $100,000

Annual year end payment = $50,000 for upcoming 20 years

Present value @ 8% = ({\sum \frac{1}{(1+0.08){^1}}+ \frac{1}{(1+0.08){^2}}+ ........ \frac{1}{(1+0.08){^2^0}}}) \times $50,000 = 9.818 X $50,000 = $490,900

Net Present Value = $100,000 + $490,900 = $590,900

Location C

Payment of $40,000 at the beginning of each year, which means first payment will not be discounted and remaining 24 payments will be discounted.

Thus Present Value = $40,000 +( {\sum \frac{1}{(1+0.08){^1}}+ \frac{1}{(1+0.08){^2}}+ ........ \frac{1}{(1+0.08){^2^4}}}) \times $40,000 = $40,000 + 10.529 X $40,000 = $40,000 + $421,160 = $461,160

Thus Location C costs least to the company as it only costs $461,160

rodikova [14]

The correct answer is installment credit. The explanation is below.

Installment credit allows you to purchase an item and then pay for it in installments. The reason that this would be the best option for you is that you do not have the money now to make the purchase, but you are able to make smaller monthly payments in order to purchase a computer.

Installment credit is better than revolving credit for new borrowers. Revolving credit would allow you to charge additional purchases on your revolving credit account. The installment plan only finances one item, rather than like a credit card, which is how revolving credit works. You would not choose non-installment credit because this would require you to make this payment all at once in a short period of time. It would not allow you to spread the payments out over time.
