Answer:
Present Value= $142
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
In 40 years, you will receive a gold watch valued at $1,000. The interest rate is 5%.
<u>We have to calculate the value today of $1,000. To do this, we need to use the following formula:</u>
PV= FV/ (1+i)^n
PV= 1,000 / (1.05)^40
PV= $142

Answer:
- <u><em>Option B. $1,025 a month for 10 years.</em></u>
Explanation:
Calculate the present value of each option:

Formula:
![PV=C\times \bigg[\dfrac{1}{r}-\dfrac{1}{r(1+r)^t}\bigg]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=PV%3DC%5Ctimes%20%5Cbigg%5B%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7Br%7D-%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7Br%281%2Br%29%5Et%7D%5Cbigg%5D)
Where:
- PV is the present value of the constant monthly payments
- r is the monthly rate
- t is the number of moths
<u>1. Option A will provide $1,500 a month for 6 years. </u>
![PV=$\ 1,500\times \bigg[\dfrac{1}{(0.005\overline 6}-\dfrac{1}{0.005\overline 6(1+0.005\overline 6)^{(6\times12)}}\bigg]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=PV%3D%24%5C%201%2C500%5Ctimes%20%5Cbigg%5B%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B%280.005%5Coverline%206%7D-%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B0.005%5Coverline%206%281%2B0.005%5Coverline%206%29%5E%7B%286%5Ctimes12%29%7D%7D%5Cbigg%5D)

<u>2. Option B will pay $1,025 a month for 10 years. </u>
![PV=$\ 1,025\times \bigg[\dfrac{1}{(0.005\overline 6}-\dfrac{1}{0.005\overline 6(1+0.005\overline 6)^{(10\times12)}}\bigg]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=PV%3D%24%5C%201%2C025%5Ctimes%20%5Cbigg%5B%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B%280.005%5Coverline%206%7D-%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B0.005%5Coverline%206%281%2B0.005%5Coverline%206%29%5E%7B%2810%5Ctimes12%29%7D%7D%5Cbigg%5D)

<u>3. Option C offers $85,000 as a lump sum payment today. </u>
<u></u>
<h2 /><h2> Conclusion:</h2>
The present value of the<em> option B, $1,025 a month for 10 years</em>, has a the greatest present value, thus since he is only concerned with the <em>financial aspects of the offier</em>, this is the one he should select.
Answer 3. Is in fact false
