In perfectly competitive markets elasticity of demand is perfectly elastic because there are many buyers and sellers, production of a homogeneous product, and the possession of all relevant information by buyers and sellers.

1               17,000                  0.90662                         15,413

2              17,000                  0.82196                          13,973

3              17,000                   0.74520                         12,668

4              17,000                   0.67561                          11,485

5              17,000                   0.61252                          10,413

7              17,000                    0.50347                          8,559

TOTAL                                    1.73554                          81,952

Net Present Value (NPV) = Present value of annual cash flows - Initial Cost

Net Present Value (NPV) = $81,952 - $80,000

Net Present Value (NPV) = $1,952 (Positive NPV)

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

Worth of scholarship today =  $1,000,000

<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

= $1,000,000
