A local newspaper carried the following story:
Â
Texas Cowboys wide receiver John Young will earn either $11,406,000 over 12 years or $8,600,000 over 6 years. Young must declare which plan he prefers. The $11 million package is deferred through the year 2017, while the non deferred arrangement ends after the 2011 season. Regardless of which plan is chosen, Young will be playing through the 2011 season. Here are the details of the two plans:

      (a) As it happened, Young ended up with the nondeferred plan. In retrospect, if Young’s interest rate were 6%, did he make a wise decision in 2006?
Â
(b) At what interest rate would the two plans be economically equivalent?
