    b) less than $500,000 today, but a positive amount.

    Explanation:

    By the virtue of the concepts of compounding and discounting, we understand that $1 today is worth more that $1 in the future.

    Where Pv = Present value

    Fv = Future value

    r = discount rate

    t = time

    Fv = Pv (1 + r) ^t

    As such If a firm can earn a profit stream of $50,000 per year for 10 years, that profit stream is worth less than $500,000 today, but a positive amount.
