Case (a) NPV for each job, discounting factor = 0.2
NPV will be calculated using formula:
r = discounting factor
Ci=future cash flows
C0=initial cash flow

Since, NPV of Medical School is higher than working in Technology Sector, thus, I will choose Medical School.
Case (b) NPV for each job, discounting factor = 0.9
using case (a) approach, we will calculate NPV

Since, with discounting factor of 0.9, NPV of working in Technology Sector is higher than Medical School, thus, I will choose working in Technology Sector.
Case (c) Yes, someone should choose job with highest NPV because present value of money is higher than future value of money as inflation or interest rates reduce the value of money. This will result in higher purchasing power for the user or higher return on investments. Thus, with cases of highest NPV, user can earn more or spend more in future in comparison to lowest NPV cases.
