Answer: c. greater because interest rate changes have a greater impact on distant cash flows than near-term cash flows.
Explanation:
Interest rate changes have a greater impact on distant cashflows because those cashflows will be exposed to the interest rates for longer. This means that they will be subjected to more discounting than a cashflow that is due in one year which would be subject to only a single year of discounting.
For instance, assume the required rate of return for two investments is 10%. One investment yields $10,000 in 20 years and another yields $10,000 in 2 years .
The present value of both are:
= 10,000 / (1 + 10%)²⁰ = 10,000 / ( 1 + 10%)²
= $1,486.43 = $8,264.46
<em>Notice the difference. The longer term investment was more exposed to interest rate effects. </em>

For the purpose of accounting, there are three types of expenditure. These are Capital Expenditure, Revenue Expenditure, and Deferred Revenue Expenditure.
Capital Expenditure is the amount incurred in acquiring long term assets like land, buildings, equipments (which are used for the purpose of earning revenues). These costs are reflected in the account of Property, Plant and Equipment.
Revenue Expenditure is cost incurred in one accounting year wherein the benefits are also enjoyed in the same period only. It does not increase the earning capacity of the business, instead, it maintains the existing earning capacity of said business. This expenditure is recurring in nature like salaries and wages, selling and distribution expenses.
Deferred Revenue Expenditure is a revenue Expenditure which has been incurred within the current accounting year but its benefit will be extended to a number of years. This cost is charged to the Profit and Loss account. Example of this is advertising cost.
What the case in the question describes in terms of what Britney’s pricing objective is called sales-orientation. Sales-orientation means that <u>the business approach is to make profit by focusing on persuading people to buy their products instead of understanding what the customer actually requires. </u>
The contrast to this approach is called <em>market orientation</em>, where the business seeks to understand what the customer wants and needs and believe that the answer to this would mean increased profits and revenue for the company.
