Answer:
First option will be recommended.
Explanation:
To determine which option to be taken, we calculate the net present value each option generates. The option generating higher NPV should be recommended.
- Net present value of first option = Lump sum receipt = $150,000.
- Net present value of second option will be found by discounting cash flows at investing rate 12% and calculated as followed:
+ Present value of 20 equal annual payment of $14,000 + Present value of $60,000 paid in 20 years = (14,000/12%) x [ 1 - 1.12^(-20)] + 60,000/1.12^20 = $110,792.
As net present value of the first option is higher than the second option, first option will be recommended.
