Victor hernandez Considers a Career Change
Victor is somewhat satisfied with his sales career and has always wondered about a career as a teacher in a public school. He would have to take a year off work to go back to college to obtain his teaching certificate, and that would mean giving up his $53,000 salary for a year. Victor expects that he could earn about the same income as a teacher.
(a) What would his annual income be after 10 years as a teacher if he received an average 3 percent raise every year? (Hint: Use Appendix A.1.)
(b) Victor also could earn $4,000 each year teaching during the summers. What is the accumulated fu- ture value of earning those annual amounts over 10 years assuming a 5 percent raise every year? (Hint: Use Appendix A.3.)
Suppose that you are in the fall of your senior year and are faced with the choice of either getting a job when you graduate or going to law school. Of course, your choice is not purely financial. However, to make an informed decision you would like to know the financial implications of the two alternatives. Let's assume that your alternatives are as follows:
If you take the "get a job" route you expect to start off with a salary of
$40,000
per year. There is no way to predict what will happen in the future, your best guess is that your salary will grow at
5
percent per year until you retire in
45
years. As a law student, you will be paying
$25,000
per year tuition for each of the
3
years you are in graduate school. However, you can then expect a job with a starting salary of
$75,000
per year. Moreover, you expect your salary to grow by
7
percent per year until you retire
39
years later.
Clearly, your total expected lifetime salary will be higher if you become a…
You have a job in a company that pays you P350,000 per year. For a better future, you want to get a Master's degree that could cost P100,000 but cannot continue your job while studying. If you decide to give up your job and return to school to earn a Master's degree, how much would be your opportunity cost?

- Jenny Jenks has researched the financial pros and cons of entering into a 1-year MBA program at her state university. The tuition and needed books for a master's program will have an upfront cost of $51,000. If she enrolls in an MBA program, Jenny will quit her current job, which pays $50,000 per year after taxes (for simplicity, treat any lost earnings as part of the upfront cost). On average, a person with an MBA degree earns an extra $21,000 per year (after taxes) over a business career of 39 years. Jenny believes that her opportunity cost of capital is 5.3%.

Part of his decision will be based on the return on investment of college. He estimates that the per year cost to attend Texas Tech including room and board is $27,750. He also assumes the cost will rise by 5.5% per year. How much is a 4 year degree going to cost Josh? A.

Sharon Shay estimates that her engineering education has a $85,000 equivalent cost at graduation. She believes the benefits of her education will occur throughout 25 years of employment. She thinks that during the first 8 years out of college, her income will be higher than that of a non-engineering graduate by $25,000 per year. During the subsequent 10 years, she projects an annual income that is $35,000 per year higher. During the last 17 years of employment, she estimates an annual salary that is $52,000 above the level of the nonengineering graduate. If her estimates are correct, what rate of return will she receive as a result of her investment in an engineering education?arrow_forwardI need the answer as soon as possiblearrow_forward
