    The correct answer is letter "C": Decreases.

    Explanation:

    The Present Value tells us how much a future sum of money is worth today given a specified rate of return. This is an important financial concept based on the principle that money received in the future is not worth as much as an equal sum received today.

    In that sense, if the graduation is delayed one more year, the initial $5,000 (USD) will value lesser than if the graduation would have taken place only in two years now.
