Expert Solution

PV= annual cash flow/ interest rate

a) :- PV of savings = 2000/0.05

= 40000

Since PV of saving >training cost, firm should implement the plan

B) :- PV of savings = 2000/0.10

= 20000

PV of savings < training cost

Firm should not implement the plan

C) :- if indifference interest rate be r% , then

Training cost = PV of savings

25000= 2000/r

R= 2000/ 25000

R= 0.08

R= 8%
