Answer:

Worth of scholarship today =  $1,000,000

Explanation:

<em>The value of the scholarship can be determined using the present value of a growing perpetuity. A growing perpetuity is an indefinite annual payment that increases by a constant percentage.</em>

<em>The applicable formula is given below;</em>

<em>PV = A/r-g</em>

A-annual payment  one year from now - 35,000

r- interest discount rate - 9.,

g- growth rate - 5.5

The value of the gifts today

= 35,000/(0.09-0.055)

= $1,000,000

Answer:

In real dollars, Babe Ruth's salary = $80,000 / 0.0645 (CPI 1930) = $1,240,000

Since Babe Ruth was the highest paid baseball player back then, if we compare his updated salary to Kershaw's salary, it represents only = $1,240,000 / $33,000,000 = 3.76%.
