A taxpayer can invest $1,000 in a money market fund that yields an annual pretax rate of return of 8% or buy an acre of land for $1,000 that appreciates at a 7% annual rate. The taxpayer plans to sell the land after 20 years and faces a 25% tax rate each year. (For purposes of this problem, ignore any risk differences between investments.) What is the after-tax accumulation at the end of 20 years from each investment? What is the annualized after-tax rate of return from each investment?
