Answer:
2) the demand for cigarettes was inelastic in the short run, but elastic in the long run.
Explanation:
Elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price.
Demand is inelastic if quantity demanded shows little or no sensitivity to changes in price.
Demand is elastic if a small change in price leads to a greater change in quantity demanded.
If the government taxes cigarettes, they become more expensive. In the short run, consumers do not have enough time to search for suitable substitutes for cigarettes. As a result, they continue purchasing the cigarettes despite the increase in price. Thus, demand is inelastic.
But over time, consumers would be able to find substitutes for cigarettes, as result they would reduce their demand for cigarettes. At this point demand is elastic. As a result of the fall in demand for cigarettes, the revenue the government earns from taxing cigarettes would fall.

Explanation:
A fix Payment for a specified period of time is called annuity. The discounting of these payment on a specified rate is known as present value of annuity.
Don draper will receive total 7 payments in 6 years time.
Formula for Present value of annuity is as follow
PV of annuity = P + P x [ ( 1- ( 1+ r )^-n ) / r ]
P = Payment = $80,000
r = rate of return = 8%
n = number of years = 6 years
PV of annuity = $80,000 + $80,000 x [ ( 1 - ( 1+ 8% )^-6 ) / 8% ]
PV of annuity = $80,000 + $369,830
PV of annuity = $449,830
