You're trying to save to buy a new $197,000 Ferrari. You have $47,000 today that can be invested at your bank. The bank pays 5.5 percent annual interest on its accounts. How long will it be before you have enough to buy the car?

26.77 years We can use either the FV or the PV formula. Both will give the same answer since they are the inverse of each other. We will use the FV formula, that is: FV = PV(1 + r)t Solving for t, we get: t = ln (FV/PV)/ln (1 + r)t = ln ($197,000/$47,000)/ln 1.055t = 26.77 years or TVM: N=?, I=5.5%, PV= 47,000, FV=197,000

Which one of the following statements related to annuities and perpetuities is correct? ~An ordinary annuity is worth more than an annuity due given equal annual cash flows for 10 years at 7 percent interest compounded annually. ~A perpetuity comprised of $100 monthly payments is worth more than an annuity of $100 monthly payments provided the discount rates are equal. ~Most loans are a form of a perpetuity. ~The present value of a perpetuity cannot be computed but the future value can. ~Perpetuities are finite but annuities are not.

Pursell Bank offers you a five-year loan for $53,000 at an annual interest rate of 7.75 percent. What will your annual loan payment be? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

First City Bank pays 8 percent simple interest on its savings account balances, whereas Second City Bank pays 8 percent interest compounded annually. If you made a deposit of $71,000 in each bank, how much more money would you earn from your Second City Bank account at the end of 8 years?

difference in accounts: $14,976.04 The simple interest per year is: $71,000 × .08 = $5,680 So after 8 years you will have: $5,680 × 8 = $45,440 in interest. The total balance will be $71,000 + 45,440 = $116,440. With compound interest we use the future value formula: FV = PV(1 + r)t FV = $71,000(1.08)8 FV = $131,416.04 The difference is: $131,416.04 - 116,440 = $14,976.04

firm wishes to maintain an internal growth rate of 7.3 percent and a dividend payout ratio of 40 percent. The current profit margin is 5.7 percent, and the firm uses no external financing sources. What must total asset turnover be?

TAT: 1.99 times We are given the profit margin. Remember that: ROA = PM(TAT) We can calculate the ROA from the internal growth rate formula, and then use the ROA in this equation to find the total asset turnover. The retention ratio is: b = 1 − .40b = .60 Using the internal growth rate equation to find the ROA, we get: Internal growth rate = (ROA × b)/[1 − (ROA × b)].073 = [ROA(.60)]/[1 − ROA(.60)]ROA = .1134, or 11.34% Plugging ROA and PM into the equation we began with and solving for TAT, we get: ROA = (PM)(TAT).1134 = .057(TAT)TAT = .1134/.057TAT = 1.99 times

Which one of these statements related to growing annuities and perpetuities is correct? ~You can compute the present value of a growing annuity but not a growing perpetuity. ~In computing the present value of a growing annuity, you discount the cash flows using the growth rate as the discount rate. ~The future value of an annuity will decrease if the growth rate is increased. ~An increase in the rate of growth will decrease the present value of an annuity. ~The present value of a growing perpetuity will decrease if the discount rate is increased.

The present value of a growing perpetuity will decrease if the discount rate is increased.

Assume you deposited $6,000 into a retirement savings account today. The account will earn 8 percent interest per year, compounded annually. You will not withdraw any principal or interest until you retire in 48 years. Which one of the following statements is correct?

Suppose you are committed to owning a $206,000 Ferrari. If you believe your mutual fund can achieve an annual rate of return of 11 percent and you want to buy the car in 8 years (on the day you turn 30), how much must you invest today?

invest: 89,390.32 To find the PV of a lump sum, we use: PV = FV/(1 + r)t PV = $206,000/(1.11)8 PV = $89,388.86 or TVM: n=8, I=11%, FV= 206,000

Assume the following ratios are constant: Total asset turnover2.7 Profit margin6.7% Equity multiplier2.0 Payout ratio22% What is the sustainable growth rate?

39.31% We must first calculate the ROE using the DuPont ratio to calculate the sustainable growth rate. ROE = (PM)(TAT)(EM)ROE = (.067)(2.7)(2.0)ROE = .3618, or 36.18% The plowback ratio is one minus the dividend payout ratio, so: b = 1 - .22b = .78 Now we can use the sustainable growth rate equation to get: Sustainable growth rate = (ROE × b)/[1 - (ROE × b)] Sustainable growth rate = [.3618(.78)]/[1 - .3618(.78)] Sustainable growth rate = .3932, or 39.32%

Assume the total cost of a college education will be $200,000 when your child enters college in 16 years. You presently have $73,000 to invest. What annual rate of interest must you earn on your investment to cover the cost of your child's college education?
