Answer:
- <u><em>d) increases as the interest rate decreases.</em></u>
Explanation:
<em>Present value</em> is the value today; future value is the value some time in the future.
The mere notion of the value of money in time should tell you that, further away in time (towards the future) a sum of money is found, the lower its value today.
Then, you should be able to rule out some propositions that are contrary to that intuition:
- a<em>) decreases as the time period decreases</em> ↔ clearly false: the present value increases as the time period decreases
- <em>e) is directly related to the time period</em>. ↔ clearly false: the present value is inversely related to the time period.
How is the present value related to the future value?
They are directly related: the higher a lump sum in the future the higher the value of it in the present; more money is more money always. More money in the future has more value in the present; less money in the future has less value in the present. Thus, the option <em>b). is inversely related to the future value</em> is false
How is the present value related to the interest rate?. Which one is true?
- c) is directly related to the interest rate, or
- d) increases as the interest rate decreases
The present value is calculated discounted the future value at the interest rate. The interest rate is in the denominator of the equation to pass from future value to present value. Thus, they are inversely related (c is false); the less the interest rate, the higher the present value of a future amount (confirm d is true).
Therefore, the correct answer is that <em>the present of a lump sum future amount: </em><em><u>d) increases as the interest rate decreases.</u></em>

If your a busy small business owner, taking time away from your store makes you less efficient. The trade offs for using this premium service are 1. your spending more money 2. control over quality. Vise versa if your paying more for the “best groceries” then that may not be an issue. Also be aware that another issue is stocking, going to the store yourself does not guarantee that the store will have all items in stock when you go. 3. Time, taking time to grocery shop takes away from your business or the cost of an employee to watch the business or do the shopping for you having you rely on a third party’s judgment. 4. Gas, the cost of gasoline to go to and from the store. If all these are added up then you are essentially paying more for your “in person” groceries as it is. Choosing to grocery shop yourself saves you money (although how much? Once everything is taken into account?) but again the time it takes away is significant. For a busy small business owner time is extremely important and this is why the trade off of cost or added expenses for groceries may be worth it. (I hope this helps guide you in answering this question).
