Answer:

The answer is: Both parties could win, depending if there were other conditions established for the auction.

Explanation:

Usually when an auction is carried out there are conditions established beforehand by the auctioneer that must be fulfilled in order for the sale to be completed.

In this case, since we don´t know what other conditions the town of Sanford included in the auction, if any other condition at all, we can´t conclude which party could win the lawsuit. For instance if a reserve was required but Arthur and Arlene didn´t do the reserve deposit, then they will obviously lose. The same happens with other established conditions like a minimum price set, etc. But if no other condition established, then Arthur and Arlene could win.

yarga [219]

Answer:

The correct answer is $20,543.17.

Explanation:

According to given scenario, the given data are as follows:

1st Payment (Pmt) = $6,500 for 12 Quarters

Interest rate = 4%

2nd payment = $5,000 for 8 Quarters

3rd payment = $7,500 for 4 Quarters

So, future value can be calculated as follows:

FV =  1st PV (1 + r )^n + 2nd PV (1 + r )^n + 3rd PV (1 + r )^n

FV =  $6,500 × ( 1 + 4%/4)^12 + $5,000 × (1 + 4%/4)^8 + $7,500 × (1 + 4%/4)^4

=  $6500 × (1.01)^12 + $5,000 × (1.01)^8 + $7,500 × (1.01)^4

=  $7,324.36 + $5,414.28 + $7,804.53

= $20,543.17

Hence, the correct answer is $20,543.17.
