Question 14/Video 1: You would like to buy your first apartment. The price of the apartment is $57,000. The seller offers you two alternatives. (1) You can pay $21,000 right now and the rest in 6 1 semiannual payments of $6,000 each or (2) you can pay $25,000 now, 8 semiannual payments of $3,000 each, and another $8,000 payment at the end of year 4. Your annual cost of fund is 5%. Which option should you choose?
D. Choose alternative 2 since the present value the payments is lower. Alternative 1 FV=0 PMT=-$6,000 N=6 IV=5/2 = 2.5 PV=? PV (of payments) = $33,048.75 PV (total) = $33,048.75+$21,000 = $54,048.75 Alternative 2: FV=0 PMT=$3,000 N=8 I/=2.5 PV=?

Question 5/Video 1: Lisa is 58 years old and would like to retire at the age of 63. Based on her retirement plan, she assumes she will have $1.5 million in her 401(k) account at that time, which will earn interest at a rate of 6% annually. To supplement her monthly pension and social security checks, she plans to withdraw 7,000 every month from her 401(k) plan. How long will her 401(k) last from the date of her retirement, if her assumptions are all correct? (Round to the nearest year)
Her fund will last her forever and never run out of money. Monthly interest rate = 6%/12 = 0.5% Interest income of the first month in retirement = 1.5 million * 0. 5% = $7 500 The monthly interest income is greater than her planned monthly withdrawal. As a result, her 401(k) balance will increase overtime. resulting in increasingly higher monthly interest incomes. as a result her money will never be depleted.
Given a set future value, which of the following will contribute to a lower present value?
Higher discount rate

Which of the following is not an example of annuity cash flows?
The grocery bill that changes every week
Reginal is about to lease an apartment for the year. The landlord wants him to make the lease payments at the start of the month. The twelve monthly payments are $1,300 per month. The landlord says he will allow Reginal to prepay the rent for the entire year with a discount. The one-time annual payment due at the beginning of the lease is $14,778. What is the implied monthly discount rate for the rent? If Reginal is earning 1.5% on his savings monthly, should he pay by month or make the single annual payment?
The month rent is due at the beginning of each month. Thus, it is an annuity due. The one-time annual payment is the present value of the annuity due. We can use the financial calculator to find the implied monthly discount rate. It is important to use the BEG mode in the calculator because the lease is an annuity due. N = 12 I/Y = ? PV = 14,778 PMT = -1300 FV = 0 I/Y = 1
Question 15/Video 1: You are interested in buying an antique car. Your friend is a car enthusiast. Therefore, you ask him for help with estimating the value of the old-timer.

Assume an annual interest rate of 6%, should you take that offer?
Yes, because the PV of the offer is less than the estimated value of the car. Response Feedback First, find the PV of the monthly payments FV = 0 PMT = -1,000 N = 12*2 = 24 I/Y = 6/12 = 0.5 PV = ? PV (payments) = $22.562.87 PV (offer) = 22,562.87 + $30,000 =52,562.87 PV (offer) « value of the car à yes. the offer should be taken
Your neighbor owns a perpetuity of $100 per year that has a discount rate of 6% per year. He offers to sell to you all but the next 20 cash flows (the first to be received one year from today) for $500. In other words, he keeps the first 20 cash flows of his perpetuity and you get all of the rest. Is this a good price for you if the appropriate discount rate is 6%?
Yes, because the present value of the remaining cash flows is $519.68 and you are buying them for only $500. PV = 100/6% = 1,666.667 PMT = 100 I/Y = 6 N = 20 FV = 0 PV = 1,146.992 1,666.667 - 1,146.992 = 519.68
A lottery ticket states that you will receive $250 every year for the next ten years. a. What is the present value of the winning lottery ticket if the discount rate is 6% and it is an ordinary annuity? b. What is the present value of the winning lottery ticket if the discount rate is 6% and it is an annuity due? c. What is the difference between the ordinary annuity and annuity due in parts (a) and (b)?
a. N = 10 I/Y = 6 PV = 0 PMT = 250 FV = 0 PV = 1,840 b. The present value of annuity due = PV of ordinary annuity*(1+r) = 1,840 x 1.06 = $1,950.40 c. 1,950.40 - 1,840 = 110.40
Your dreams of becoming rich have just come true. You have won the State of Tranquility's lottery. The state offers you two payment plans for the $5,000,000 advertised jackpot. You can take the annual payments of $250,000 for the next twenty years or $2,867,480 today. a. If your investment rate over the next twenty years is 8%, which payoff will you choose? b. If your investment rate over the next twenty years is 5%, which payoff will you choose? c. At what investment rate will the annuity stream of $250,000 be the same as the lump-sum payment of $2,867,480?
a. N = 20 I/Y = 8 PV = ? PMT = 250,000 FV = 0 PV = 2,454,537 At 8%, the present value of installment payments is $2,454,537 million, less than the lump sum of $2,867,480. Take the lump sum. b. N = 20 I/Y = 5 PV = ? PMT = 250,000 FV = 0 PV = 3,115,553 At 5%, the present value of installment payments is $3,115,553 million, greater than the lump sum of $2,867,480. Take the installment payments. c. N = 20 I/Y = ? PV = -2,867,480 PMT = 250,000 FV = 0 I/Y = 6 At 6%, the two options are equivalent.

Question 1/Video 1: For the next 8 years, an investor will deposit $1,000 every year into special investment funds. The fund pays an annual investment rate of 10% for the first 3 years ( or from today to the end of year 3) After that, the annual interest rate drops to 5% per year. What is the account balance of the investor at the end of year 8? Assume that each deposit is made at the end of the year.
$9,750.12 first, we can find the act balance at the end of year 3 as follows: N=3. PMT =-1000, I/Y = 10% PV=1 >> FV =3310 next we can find how much the $3310 grows to at the end of year 8: PV=-3310, N- 5, I/Y= 5% PMT=0 >> 4224.49 next we can find the FV of the next 5 deposits at the end of year 8: N=5, PMT, =-1000. I/Y= 5 PV=0 >> FV ==5525.63 Finally add them up - 4224.49 + 5525.63 =9750.12 alternative we can combine the last two steps as follows: n=5, pmt=-1000, I/y = -3310 >> 9750.12

Kant Miss Company is promising its investors that it will double their money every three years. Is this promise too good to be true? What annual rate is Kant Miss promising? If you invest $250 now and Kant Miss is able to deliver on its promise, how long will it take your investment to reach $32,000? Use the Rule of 72.
72/3 = 24. Based on the Rule of 72, the annual rate must be 24% to double the money every three years. From $250 to $32,000, the investment increases by 128 times. In other words, the initial investment has doubled itself 7 times. If money is doubled every 3 years, then it would take approximately 21 years. More specifically, to increase from $250 to $32,000, it is an increase of 128 times, or 32,000=250(1+100%)7 In other words, the money needs to be doubled 7 times, or from 250 to 500 (1 times, or 3 years) from 500 to 1,000 (2 times, or 6 years) from 1,000 to 2,000 (3 times, or 9 years) from 2,000 to 4,000 (4 times, or 12 years) from 4,000 to 8,000 (5 times, or 15 years) from 8,000 to 16,000 (6 times, or 18 years) from 16,000 to 32,000 (7 times, or 21 years).
