An elite law school will charge you $37,500.00 for your first year of tuition. This is due at the beginning of the year. You anticipate tuition to increase by 3.00% each year going forward. You will spend three years in the law program.

Using the conservative discount rate, what is the value of the tuition the day you start the law school?
