how much should the insurance company be willing to pay you in one lump sum today?
1.You have been offered a “structured” settlement from an insurance company after being involved in an auto accident. Under the terms of the agreement, you will be paid the following amounts:
Today: ,000
One year from today:,000
Two years from today:,000
Three years from today:,000
