2) Suppose that the annual cost (tuition, fees, room, and board) to obtain a Bachelors degree in Utah is $15,000, which is expected to grow at 5.5% per year. Assume that you begin school today and fund the education expenses through subsidized student loans at a 4% fixed interest rate. These loans will be paid off over a 15-year period following the completion of the 4-year degree. Additionally, the median salary earned with a Bachelors degree is $65,000, while that of a High School diploma is $35,000. What is the present value of the after-cost incremental cash flows received from higher education if the appropriate discount rate is 2.75% per annum? [Round the final answer to the nearest cent]
