- You have to decide whether to invest $100 in a friend's enterprise, where in a year's time the money will increase to $130. You have agreed that your friend will then repay you $120, keeping $10 for himself But instead he may choose to run away with the whole $130. Any of your money that you don't invest in the enterprise you can invest elsewhere safely at the prevailing rate of interest r and get $100 (1+r) next year. For interest rate r> __A___% there is an equilibrium outcome of the infinitely repeated game in which each period you invest with your friend and he repays as agreed. If the rate of interst is 10% per year, an alternative profit-splitting agreement giving $__B___ for the friend is an equilibrium outcome of the infinitely repeated game, where each period you invest with your friend and he repays as agreed. Answer A= ? Answer B= ?arrow_forwardYou are negotiating the terms of a legal settlement. You have been given several different settlement options. Your average rate of return on the assets you currently hold is 5% and you expect to continue receiving that rate. You have a choice of receiving: • A lump sum today (t0) of $30,000 and payments of $5,000 at the end of the year for the next 7 years (total of 8 payments). Your total payout is $65,000 for the duration of the agreement. • Equal payments of $7,500 for the next 10 years at the end of each year (total of 10 payments). Your total payout is $75,000 for the duration of the agreement. • Equal payments of $13,000 starting today and continuing annually for the next 4 years (total of 5 payments). Your total payout is $65,000 for the duration of the agreement. a) What is the present value of each alternative? b) Explain why receiving money today is better than receiving the same money later.
