Answer:

(A) A perpetuity is a stream of regularly timed, equal cash flows that continues forever

(B) The value of a perpetuity is equal to the sum of the present value of its expected future cash flows

the bank offers 1.6%

in the alternative scenario it offers 1.067%

Explanation:

(A) A perpetuity is a stream of regularly timed, equal cash flows that continues forever

The perpetuity is an annuity in which time tends to infinity, to be qualified as an annuity the cash payment must be regular.

(B) The value of a perpetuity is equal to the sum of the present value of its expected future cash flows

As state above the perpetuinty is an annuity, the annuities return the present value of the expcted future cash flow.

Given the annuity formula

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

if times tends to infinity then the expression:

$\lim_{n \to \infty} (1+r)^{-n} = 1$

Nexti n the annuity formula we got:

$C \times \frac{1-1 }{rate}= PV\\$

So we end up with C / rate = PV

which s the perpetuity formula

800/50000 = 0.016 = 1.6%

800/75000 = 0.0106667 = 1.067%

Government's unfunded liabilities: a. result in more efficient policies in an attempt to satisfy these liabilities. b. result fr

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. result from the political bias toward immediate benefits and deferred costs.

Explanation:

While many people run hysterically on the streets begging politicians to act in the face of the threat of climate change, many people, young and old, may be demanding the same type of action, but to fix the unfunded passive systems.

By extending eligibility and increasing the benefits of a pay-per-use system while at the same time having fewer children to finance it, previous generations have left a fearsome financial obligation. Either taxes will increase dramatically for tomorrow's workers, lowering their standard of living, or benefits will fall for tomorrow's retirees, lowering their standard of living. A group will feel very angry.

These problems were anticipated even when politicians were raising payments, but each elected government simply kicked the can and allowed things to continue as usual.

Social security systems and pension funds are actuarially not funded systems. There is no obligation for this generation to have children at the same rate as previous generations. Therefore, when those born in the 1950s reach retirement age in the next century, their stipends will feel more like a burden due to the ranks of non-active members of society that will depend on their contributions to live.
