The economic term is the opportunity cost.

The concept of opportunity cost is a relatively inexpensive and relative measure that involves people's preferences, so it varies from person to person. It is a question of comparing what is left over when making a decision.

In Katie's case, the opportunity cost of the money she saves to buy a car is what she fails to do with that money. For example, she stops investing in stocks, fails to make a trip, etc.

All decisions involve an opportunity cost. Taking another example, the opportunity cost of studying for the test at the end of the week is measured by the loss of leisure you would have. However, the decision to study for the test is chosen because it is more valuable.

There are ______ methods available to determine the income objective after the death of the client for planning purposes.
Natalija [7]

Two is the correct answer.

There are two different methods that allow you to determine the income objective after the death of a client for planning purposes. These approaches are known as the <u>capital liquidation</u> and the <u>capital retention/ conservation.</u> We have a capital conservation method when the death benefits are invested at interest and the amount paid to the beneficiary consists of the interest accrued only. On the other hand, in the capital liquidation method, the payments made to the beneficiary consists of both part interest and part principle during a certain period of time. In this case, payments will cease when the full amount of benefits is exhausted.
