Papessa [141]

Answer:

Option B. $1,025 a month for 10 years.

Explanation:

Calculate the present value of each option:

$\text{Monthly rate: } 6.8\%/12 = 0.068/12 = 0.005\overline 6$

Formula:

$PV=C\times \bigg[\dfrac{1}{r}-\dfrac{1}{r(1+r)^t}\bigg]$

Where:

PV is the present value of the constant monthly payments
r is the monthly rate
t is the number of moths

1. Option A will provide $1,500 a month for 6 years.

$PV=$\ 1,500\times \bigg[\dfrac{1}{(0.005\overline 6}-\dfrac{1}{0.005\overline 6(1+0.005\overline 6)^{(6\times12)}}\bigg]$

$PV=\$ 88,479.23$

2. Option B will pay $1,025 a month for 10 years. 

$PV=$\ 1,025\times \bigg[\dfrac{1}{(0.005\overline 6}-\dfrac{1}{0.005\overline 6(1+0.005\overline 6)^{(10\times12)}}\bigg]$

$PV=\$ 89,068.22$

3. Option C offers $85,000 as a lump sum payment today.

PV = $85,000

<h2 /><h2> Conclusion:</h2>

The present value of the option B, $1,025 a month for 10 years, has a the greatest present value, thus since he is only concerned with the financial aspects of the offier, this is the one he should select.

natka813 [3]

Answer: Worsen; benefits

Explanation:

Specific Automakers is signing a long term contract with the union who are the representative of workers.

Real wages should increase by = 2%

Expected inflation = 5%

Nominal wage increase = 7%

Actual inflation = 6%

Actual inflation is greater than expected inflation, so this would worsen the union and it is beneficial for the automakers because now real wage increase is only:

= Nominal wage - Actual inflation rate

= 7% - 6%

= 1%

This is an example of re-distributive cost of inflation.
