Salary offered = $55,000 per year

Tax rate in Tennessee = 6%

Tax rate in Pennsylvania = 3.07%

So, Tax per year in Tennessee

"= \\frac{55,000*6}{100}\\\\\n\n = \\$3,300"

Tax per year in Pennsylvania

"= \\frac{55,000*3.07}{100}\\\\\n\n = \\$1,688.5"

So, if you accept the position in Pennsylvania then tax savings per year would be

= Tax per year in Tennessee - Tax per year in Pennsylvania

"= \\$3,300 - \\$1,688.5\\\\\n\n= \\$1,611.5"

So, the tax savings per year would be $1,611.5 for 10 years.

Now using Future worth (FW)/Annuity (A)relation-

"FW = \\frac{A}{r}[(1+r)^n-1]\\\\\nFW = \\frac{1611.5}{0.1}[(1+0.1)^10-1]\\\\\nFW = 16115*1.5937\\\\\nFW=\\$ 25682"
