Answer:

The PV of the famous quarterback is $11,662,991.56, while the PV of less famous receiver is $12,719,159.63.

Explanation:

Present value (PV) refers to the valuation date value of a stream of income expected to be received in the future.

The PV for each of the two contracts can calculated by using the interest rate of 9%% (i.e. 0.12) as the discounting factor (r) to calculate the PV for each year. The discounting formula to use is (1+r)^n where n represents each relevant year. The calculations are done as follows:

1. For a famous quarterback

Step 1. Calculation of the PV for year

Year 1 PV = $3,600,000 ÷ (1.09)^1 = $3,302,752.29  

Year 2 PV = $3,600,000 ÷ (1.09)^2 =  $3,030,047.98  

Year 3 PV = $3,600,000 ÷ (1.09)^3 = $2,779,860.53

Year 4 PV = $3,600,000 ÷ (1.09)^4 = $2,550,330.76  

Step 2. Calculation of the total PV

This is obtained by adding the PVs of year 1 - 4 calculated above, and this is equal to $11,662,991.56.

2. For a less famous receiver

Step 1. Calculation of the PV for year

Year 1 PV = $3,000,000 ÷ (1.09)^1 = $2,752,293.58  

Year 2 PV = $3,000,000 ÷ (1.09)^2 =  $2,525,039.98  

Year 3 PV = $3,000,000 ÷ (1.09)^3 = $2,316,550.44  

Year 4 PV = $3,000,000 ÷ (1.09)^4 = $2,125,275.63  

Step 2. Calculation of the total PV

This is obtained by adding the PVs of year 1 - 4 calculated above, and this is equal to $9,719,159.63.

In addition, the $3,000,000 is to receive now is added to the $9,719,159.63 as follows:

PV of less famous receiver = $9,719,159.63 + $3,000,000

                                             = $12,719,159.63

Conclusion

Therefore, the PV of the famous quarterback is $11,662,991.56, while the PV of less famous receiver is $12,719,159.63.

Explanation:

The Demand for Crude oil is more elastic in the long run than in the short run because in the long run a substitute for crude oil may be found.

Crude oil is more elastic in the long run because consumers have enough time to find substitute products for crude oil. Price elasticity of demand in the short run  is low because consumers donot have sufficient time to look for substitutes , they donot have much of a choice but to take whatever price is charged by producers of crude oil

emmainna [20.7K]

<u>Explanation:</u>

The term IoT is an acronym for 'Internet of Things' which refers to a modern technology that allows certain physical objects or “things” as we may call it to connect to the internet.

While Big Data refers not just to large data, but to an innovative field of technology that specializes in analyzing very large (big) data sets.

Consider the education industry, by means of IoT, it is possible for school management to effectively track their student's academic progress in real-time.

IoT and Big Data connected in the sense that, as these physical things (objects) communicate over the internet, a mass amount of data ("Big Data") is been generated which could then be analyzed using specialized software. In other words, they are mutually beneficial.
