Answer:

D) Tanner should be indifferent between the two investments, since both are equivalent to the same amount of cash today.

Explanation:

Here are the options to this question:

A) $531.40 later today, since $1 today is worth more than $1 in one year.

B) $550 in one year, since it is $50 more than he invested rather than $31.40 more than he invested.

C) Neither - both investments have a negative NPV.

D) Tanner should be indifferent between the two investments, since both are equivalent to the same amount of cash today.

Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator:

For the first option:

Cash flow in year 0 = $500

Cash flow in year 1 = $550

I = ​ 3.5%

NPV = $31.40

For the second option:

NPV = $631.40 - $600 = $31.40

The npv of both options are equal and postive. So, Tanner should be indifferent between the options.

To find the NPV using a financial calacutor:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

3. Press compute

zubka84 [21]

It is TRUE that Anna would be well-advised to consider her personal needs and values in the analysis, not only the bank’s features when she’s choosing a bank and a checking account.

 

Opening a checking account might seem like a simple task. You just walk into a bank near your home or office, fill out an application, hand over a deposit and you're all set, right?


Not quite.


<span>While it is often that easy to open an account, it's not always that easy to choose a checking account. That's because banks, credit unions and other financial companies offer a wide range of checking accounts with different features and fees. Unless your banking needs are unusually basic, you should do some research and shop around for an account that's right for you.</span>

 

I am hoping that this answer has satisfied your query and it will be able to help you in your endeavor, and if you would like, feel free to ask another question.
