    The net present value for each option is given below.

    (1) $70,000 cash immediately

    NPV = 70,000 * 1 = $ 70,000

    (2) $24,000 cash immediately and a six-period annuity of $8,100 beginning one year from today, or

    NPV = (24,000*1) + (8,100 * (1 - ((1+7%) ^-6) / 7%)) = $ 62,609

    (3) a six-period annuity of $14,500 beginning one year from today

    NPV = (14,500 * (1 - ((1+7%) ^-6) / 7%)) = $ 69,115
