Answer: (B.) <u><em>If the maximum that a consumer is willing and able to pay is greater than the minimum price the producer is willing and able to accept for a good.</em></u>
Explanation:
A producer will only sell goods and services if the consumer is willing to pay as much as the asking price. i.e. The price that the producer is asking. For this to happen the consumer's willingness to pay must be greater than the minimum price.
Therefore , the trade will take place if <u><em>the maximum that a consumer is willing and able to pay is greater than the minimum price the producer is willing and able to accept for a good.</em></u>

+ Present value of 20 equal annual payment of $14,000 + Present value of $60,000 paid in 20 years = (14,000/12%) x [ 1 - 1.12^(-20)] + 60,000/1.12^20 = $110,792.
As net present value of the first option is higher than the second option, first option will be recommended.
