Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

A friend of Mr. Richards recently won a law suit for $30 million. They can either take the payments over 10 years or settle today for cash of $25 million. Mr. Richard is optimistic that he can earn a 6% return on the money and that they should settle for $25 million today and he will invest it for them.

First, we need to find the present value of the 30 million.

To do that we need to calculate the final value.

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

FV= {3,000,000*[(1.06^10)-1]}/0.06= 39,542,385

PV= FV/(1+i)^n= 39,542,385/1.06^10= 22,080,261

B) Now we know that the present value of option B is higher. One dollar today is better than one dollar tomorrow. It is better to receive the money now to invest it.

Consider a profit-maximizing firm in a competitive industry. Under which of the following situations would the firm choose to pr

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Option (a) and (b) are considered or correct.

Explanation:

Under the following two conditions, a firm in a perfectly competitive market produces at a point where the marginal revenue is equal to the marginal cost:

(i) Minimum AVC < Price < minimum ATC : Yes

In this case, a firm may suffer a loss but it will be able to cover its minimum average variable cost. Hence, this firm continue operating in this market and if he shut down its operation then he may suffer a larger loss. Therefore, it chooses to continue operating under this market conditions.

(ii) Price > minimum ATC : Yes

In this case, the price received by the seller is greater than the minimum average total cost. Therefore, the firm is able to cover all of its cost of production and earning an economic profit. Hence, it obviously chooses to continue its operation.

The third option is not considered here because in this case, the firm won't be able to cover its variable cost.

You are set to receive an annual payment of $12,100 per year for the next 17 years. Assume the interest rate is 7 percent. How m

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

The difference in value is worth $8,269 more in money.

Explanation:

Case 1. Payments are made at the end of each year

So here, we will use the annuity formula for computing the present value of payments that we are receiving at the end of each year.

Here

Annual Cash flow is $12,100

Interest Rate "r" is 7%

And

Number of Payments "n" will be 17

Present Value = Cash flow * [1 - 1 / (1+r)^n] / r

By putting values, we have:

Present Value = $12,100 * [1 - 1 / (1 + 7%)^17] / 7%

Present Value = $12,100 * 9.763223

Present Value = $118,135

Now

Cash 2. Payments are arising at the start of each year

Just like the case above, we will use the annuity formula for computing the present value of payments that we are receiving at the start of each year. The first payment will be at worth the same because it is received in today's price.

So

Present Value = Cash flow + Cash flow * [1 - 1 / (1+r)^n] / r

So by putting values, that were used in case 1, we have:

Present Value = $12,100 + $12,100 * (1 - (1/1.07)^16) / 0.07

Present Value = $12,100 + $12,100 * 9.446649

Present Value = $126,404

Difference in Present Value = PV of Case 1 - PV of Case 2

= $126,404 - $118,135 = $8,269

The difference in value is worth $8,269 more in money.
