Alternative B.

Explanation:

Alternatives:

                                                A            B

First Cost                           $5,000     $9,200

Uniform Annual Benefit     $1,750      $1,850

Useful life, in years                4              8

Rate of return                       7%            7%

Annuity factor                   3.387          5.971

Present value of annuity $5,927.25 $11,046.35

Net cash flow                 $927.25     $1,846.35

In this case the final good is the necklace that the store department sells for $2,000 therefore we will only consider the final transaction. So the GDP will increase by $2,000 as a result of this series of transactions because the final good sold for $2,000.
