Marvin Turner was discussing summer employment with Tina Song, president of Motown Construction Service:Tina: I’m glad you’re thinking about joining us for the summer. We certainly can use the help. Marvin: Sounds good. I enjoy outdoor work, and I could use the money to help with next year’s school expenses.Tina: I’ve got a plan that can help you out on that. As you know, I’ll pay you $14 per hour, but in addition, I’d like to pay you with cash. Since you’re only working for the summer, it really doesn’t make sense for me to go to the trouble of formally putting you on our payroll system. In fact, I do some jobs for my clients on a strictly cash basis, so it would be easy just to pay you that way.Marvin: Well, that’s a bit unusual, but I guess money is money.Tina: Yeah, not only that, it’s tax-free!Marvin: What do you mean?Tina: Didn’t you know?

1. Blake is considering whether to enroll full-time in a two-year, webpage design certificate program. Enrolling in this program requires him to leave his current job and devote all of his available time to his studies. He plans to make his decision based on standard human capital analysis, and has obtained the following data to help with his decision:
Direct Costs (tuition and fees in each year): $2,000 Current annual earnings (i.e., w/o the additional education): $5,000
After completing the certificate program, Blake will work 3 years and then retire (thus, this is a 5-period model: t = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4). His estimated annual earnings, post-schooling, in each year are: $11,000
Blake's discount rate is 3%
Create a table with the following information (shown in columns): time period, direct costs in each period, indirect costs in each period, expected earnings with additional schooling, and incremental (net) benefits in each period (discounted by the appropriate rate). Given the data,…
Answer the following problems and explain it step by step:
1. A man who is 30 years old at the start of the year, is considering getting an MFM degree. He currently earns $40,000 per year and expects to continue earning that amount for the rest of his working life (until age 65). He will give up his income for two years and will pay $20,000 per year in tuition, if he attends business school. In exchange, he expects a raise in his salary after completing his MFM. Assume that the post-graduation salary grows at a 5% annual rate and that the discount rate is 8%. What is the minimum expected starting salary after graduation for him that makes attending business school a positive-NPV investment? (Assuming that all cash flows happen at the end of each year.)
