  1. The net present value of plan (i) is calculated by the following
    • MICROECONOMICS IN MODULES (LOOSELEAF), Chapter 9A, Problem 1P , additional homework tip  6

    The present value of the (ii) is calculated by the following way

      = MICROECONOMICS IN MODULES (LOOSELEAF), Chapter 9A, Problem 1P , additional homework tip  7 = MICROECONOMICS IN MODULES (LOOSELEAF), Chapter 9A, Problem 1P , additional homework tip  8 =

      MICROECONOMICS IN MODULES (LOOSELEAF), Chapter 9A, Problem 1P , additional homework tip  9

    So plan (i) is considered to be less as compared to plan (ii)

  2. The present value of the (i) plan can be found out by the following
    • = MICROECONOMICS IN MODULES (LOOSELEAF), Chapter 9A, Problem 1P , additional homework tip  10 MICROECONOMICS IN MODULES (LOOSELEAF), Chapter 9A, Problem 1P , additional homework tip  11 MICROECONOMICS IN MODULES (LOOSELEAF), Chapter 9A, Problem 1P , additional homework tip  12 MICROECONOMICS IN MODULES (LOOSELEAF), Chapter 9A, Problem 1P , additional homework tip  13

      = MICROECONOMICS IN MODULES (LOOSELEAF), Chapter 9A, Problem 1P , additional homework tip  14

    The present value of the (ii) plan can be found out by the following

      = MICROECONOMICS IN MODULES (LOOSELEAF), Chapter 9A, Problem 1P , additional homework tip  15

      = MICROECONOMICS IN MODULES (LOOSELEAF), Chapter 9A, Problem 1P , additional homework tip  16

      = MICROECONOMICS IN MODULES (LOOSELEAF), Chapter 9A, Problem 1P , additional homework tip  17

So now the plan (ii) is less expensive

Respond to B.A. I have chosen Gross Domestic Product (GDP) as the macroeconomic indicator to review and provide  a forecast prediction. Based on the current trend I predict a 2% annual GDP growth rate, indicating an unstable economy due to the impact of Donald Trump's tariffs on some countries and other other economic factors. This growth rate is lower than the historical average , indicating a slowdown in economic expansion. Overall, the forecast suggests a modest growth in GDP, but with potential risks and uncertainties ahead. But if he reverse his tariff policies, I think it could possibly result in a strong economic growth. As the removal of tariffs would likely minimize the costs for businesses and consumers and also rise trade and economic activities.  Provide feedback/comments this post. You could agreement or disagreement (including why you agree or disagree). Or you could expand on this post by sharing different views and predictions.
