After settling a legal dispute, Frank must chose one of two settlement payment options. He can either receive an immediate lump sum payment of
$250,000, or he can receive an installment payment package with annual
payments of $25,500 spread out over a span of 10 years. Which would likely
be more beneficial to him, and why?
A. The installment package would be better because it would prevent

C. The immediate payment would be better because he could use the
money immediately to invest it in a safe, low return account.
D. The installment package would be better because he'll have more
money in 10 years than with the lump sum.

(4 points) suppose the production function in the solow model is given by yt = ak¯ 3/4 t l 1/4 t . (a) what are the five equations and five unknowns that summarize the solow model? (b) show the transition dynamics in the solow model if ¯sy0 < ¯dk0. make sure you label the axes, curves, initial level of capital and steady-state level of capital. (c) solve for capital, output, capital per person, and output per person in the steady state. (d) if a¯ = 2, l¯ = 4, ¯s = 0.2, and ¯d = 0.05, calculate the steady-state level of capital and output per person.
