A "Name That Tune" contest has a grand prize of $500,000. However, the contest stipulates that the winner will receive just $200
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is (C) $401,302

Explanation:

To get how much the contest winner actually won, we have to calculate the amount receive at the end of each year discounted at this moment. Then,  we added  all the payments.  

For example, the first payment in  $200,000 at this moment,  so we add  $200,000.  

At the end of the first year we receive $30,000, and the rate of discount is 8%

The formula of discount is P=A/ (1+r)ⁿ

A=Final amount  

P= Principal

r= interest rate

n= time

Year 1 = A/ (1+r)ⁿ =$30,000/1,08¹= 27777,77

Year 2 =$30,000/1,08²= 25720,16

Year 3=23814,96

Year 4=22050,89

Year 5=20417,49

Year 6=18905,08

Year 7=17504,71

Year 8=16208,06

Year 9=15007,46

Year 10=13895,80

 

Total  401302,44

What is the maximum amount a firm should pay for a project that will return $15,000 annually for 5 years if the opportunity cost
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

The firm should pay $46907.57 for the given project.

Explanation:

Given information:

Return = $15000 annually

Time = 5 years

Opportunity cost = 18%

The formula for payment is

PV=R(\frac{1}{OC}-\frac{1}{OC(1+OC)^t})

where, R is return, OC is opportunity cost, t is time in years.

Substitute R=15000, t=5 and OC=0.18 in the above formula.

PV=15000(\frac{1}{0.18}-\frac{1}{0.18(1+0.18)^5})

PV=46907.5653141

PV\approx 46907.57

Therefore the firm should pay $46907.57 for the given project.
