Generally Accepted Accounting Principles

If you put up $27,000 today in exchange for a 6.50 percent, 13-year annuity, what will the annual cash flow be?

Here we have the PVA, the length of the annuity, and the interest rate. We want to calculate the annuity payment. Using the PVA equation: PVA = C({1 - [1/(1 + r)^t]} / r ) PVA = $27,000 = $C{[1 - (1/1.0650)^13 ] / .0650} We can now solve this equation for the annuity payment. Doing so, we get: C = $27,000 / 8.59974 =C = $3,139.63

If you put up $44,000 today in exchange for a 6.75 percent, 14-year annuity, what will the annual cash flow be?

Here we have the PVA, the length of the annuity, and the interest rate. We want to calculate the annuity payment. Using the PVA equation: PVA = C({1 − [1/(1 + r)^t]}/r)PVA = $44,000 = $C{[1 − (1/1.0675^14)]/.0675} We can now solve this equation for the annuity payment. Doing so, we get: C = $44,000/8.878105C = $4,956.01

If you put up $53,000 today in exchange for a 6.75 percent, 14-year annuity, what will the annual cash flow be?

Here we have the PVA, the length of the annuity, and the interest rate. We want to calculate the annuity payment. Using the PVA equation: PVA = C({1 − [1/(1 + r)^t]}/r)PVA = $53,000 = $C{[1 − (1/1.0675^14)]/.0675} We can now solve this equation for the annuity payment. Doing so, we get: C = $53,000/8.878105C = $5,969.74

What is the present value of $45,000 to be received 50 years from today if the discount rate is 8 percent?

PV = $45,000/1.08^50 PV = $959.46

you have just won the lottery and will receive $1,000,000 in one year. You will receive payments for 35 years and the payments will increase by 3.7 percent per year. If the appropriate discount rate is 7.7 percent, what is the present value of your winnings?

PV = C{[1/(r - g)] - [1/(r - g)] × [(1 + g)/(1 + r)]^t} PV = $1,000,000{[1/(.077 - .037)] - [1/(.077 - .037)] × [(1 + .037)/(1 + .077)]^35} PV = $18,352,675.70

You have decided to fund an account that will pay your descendants the inflation-adjusted equivalent of $100 per year forever. You assume inflation will equal 3% per year, and you expect the amount to earn 7% per year. How much do you need to put in the account today to ensure you gift will continue forever.

PV= C/(r-g)=100/(0.07-0.03)=$2500 today

If you want to know how much you need to invest today at 12% compounded annually in order to have $4,000 in five years, you need to find a _______ value.

Present

If you want to know how much you need to invest today at 12% compounded annually in order to have $4,000 in five years, you will need to find an _________ value

Present

Suppose you need $5000 in one year, $4300 in two years, and $500 in three years. Match each present value amount to the corresponding cash flows assuming a discount rate of 17%.

Present value of the year 1 cash flow: $5000/1.17=4273.50 Present value of the year 2 cash flow: $4300/(1.17)^2= 3141.21 Present value of the year 3 cash flow: 5000/(1.17)^3= 3121.85

You are planning to make monthly deposits of $190 into a retirement account that pays 9 percent interest compounded monthly. If your first deposit will be made one month from now, how large will your retirement account be in 15 years?

This problem requires us to find the FVA. The equation to find the FVA is: FVA = C{[(1 + r)^t - 1]/r} FVA = $190[{[1 + (0.09/12) ]^180 - 1}/(0.09/12)] FVA = $71,897.1

Imprudential, Inc., has an unfunded pension liability of $566 million that must be paid in 25 years. To assess the value of the firm's stock, financial analysts want to discount this liability back to the present. If the relevant discount rate is 5.9 percent, what is the present value of this liability?

To find the PV of a lump sum, we use: PV = FV/(1 + r)^t PV = $566,000,000/(1.059)25PV = $135,026,008.13

Your company will generate $65,000 in annual revenue each year for the next seven years from a new information database. If the appropriate interest rate is 8.25 percent, what is the present value?

To find the PVA, we use the equation: PVA = C({1 − [1/(1 + r)^t]}/r) PVA = $65,000{[1 − (1/1.0825^7)]/.0825} PVA = $335,539.75

Your company will generate $76,000 in annual revenue each year for the next seven years from a new information database. If the appropriate interest rate is 7.75 percent, what is the present value?

To find the PVA, we use the equation: PVA = C({1 − [1/(1 + r)^t]}/r) PVA = $76,000{[1 − (1/1.0775^7)]/.0775} PVA = $399,089.97

You have just won the lottery and will receive $1,000,000 in one year. You will receive payments for 25 years and the payments will increase by 2 percent per year. If the appropriate discount rate is 6 percent, what is the present value of your winnings?

We can use the present value of a growing annuity equation to find the value of your winnings today. Doing so, we find: PV = C{[1/(r - g)] - [1/(r - g)] × [(1 + g)/(1 + r)]^t} PV = $1,000,000{[1/(.060 - .020)] - [1/(.060 - .020)] × [(1 + .020)/(1 + .060)]^25} PV = $15,443,526.25

You want to buy a new sports car from Muscle Motors for $57,500. The contract is in the form of a 60-month annuity due at an APR of 5.9 percent. What will your monthly payment be?

We need to use the PVA due equation, that is: PVA due = (1 + r)PVA Using this equation: PVA due = $57,500 = [1 + (.059/12)] × C[{1 - 1/[1 + (.059/12)]^60}/(.059/12)]$57,218.67 = C{1 - [1/(1 + .059/12)60]}/(.059/12) C = $1,103.54 Notice, to find the payment for the PVA due we simply compound the payment for an ordinary annuity forward one period.

You expect to receive bonuses with your job at the end of each year for the next five years. Assume you can invest all of your bonuses at 4.5% and the bonuses are shown below, match each amount to its future value at the end of five years, then match the appropriate box Year 1: $500 Year 2:$1200 Year 3: $1000 Year 4: $2,400 Year 5: $2,200

Year 1: $596.26 Year 2: $1,369.40 Year 3: $1,092.03 Year 4: $2,508.00 Year 5: $ 2,200.00 Total after 5 years: $7,765.68

You are considering an investment that will earn the following cash flows over the next three years. You expect to earn ^% return on the investment. Match each cash flow with its present value, then match the total amount you should pay for the investment today to the appropriate box. Year 1: $5000 Year 2: $6000 year 3: 5500

Year 1: Discount for 1 period: 5000/1.06=$4716.98 Year 2: Discount for 2 periods: 6000/(1.06)^2=$5339.98 Year 3: Discount for 3 periods: 5500/(1.06)^3=$4617.91 You should not pay more that the PV of the cash flows which the sum of discounted cashflows. ADD THEM ALL
