Answer:
The correct option is E,Ted's annuity has a higher present value than Allison's
Explanation:
Both annuities do not have equal amount today as $1000 received today is higher in value terms than $1000 receivable in a month's time since cash receivable earlier is much more valued than the one receivable later.
Ted's annuity is an annuity due not an ordinary annuity
Allison's annuity is an ordinary annuity not annuity due
Allison's annuity has a lower present value than Ted's and not the other way round.
The only correct statement is option E,since Ted is expected to receive $1000 today, his annuity has a higher present value compared to Allison's
