Paraphin [41]

Answer:

The correct answer would be option A, The lump sum is always better.

Explanation:

If I would have to give advice to my friend who is in the same situation as i was in some time back, I would recommend him to go for the Lump sum choice. This is because of the fact that the interest rate compounded in three years payment schedule will result in the less value of what I am getting today.
