Lloyd is a divorce attorney who practices lay:I in Florida. He wants to join the American Divorce Lawyers Association (ADLA), a professional organizaijon for divorce attorneys. The membership dues for the ADLA are $3'5l] per year and must be paid at the beginning of each year. For instance, membership dues for the rst year are paid today, and dues for the second year are payable one year from today. However, the ADLi-'i aiso has an option for members to buy a lifetime membership today for $8,000 and never have to pay annual membership dues. Obviously, the lifetime membership isn't a good deal if you only remain a member for a couple of years, but if you remain a member for 40 years, it's a great deal. Suppose that the appropriate annual interest rate is 11%. What is the minimum number of years that lJoyd must remain a member of the ADLA so that the lifetime membership is cheaper (on a present value basis) than paying $160 in annual membership dues?
