A) Compute the present value of $1000 that you're receiving in 1 year, if interest rate is 10% B) How about if you received the $1000 in 2 years, what would that value be today?

A) 1000 / ($1.10 in one year / $1.00 today) = $909.09 Low key also 1000 / 1.10 = $909.09 B) 909.09 / 1.1 = 826.45 so the equation is C / (1+r)^n

Market to Book Ratio - what is (typically) the ratio for successful firms?

Your company has an investment opportunity w/the following cash flows: Cost = invest $100,000 today Benefit = you get $105,000 in 1 year A) Should you do it if interest rates are currently 10%? B) How about if interest rates were currently 4%?

Convert your present value of $100,000 to future dollars to see if it is less than $105,000. If it is then invest because you would be making more money than keeping it. A) So $100,000 today X ($1.1 in 1 year / $1.00 today) = $110,000. So dont invest, because you can make $5000 by keeping it with 10% interest. B) $100,000 today X (1.04 in 1 year / $1.00 today) = 104,000. So DO invest in this case because you would be making $1000 less by keeping it

EPS equation? A) If Petco had 2 million of net income and 3.6 million shares, whats the EPS B) What is a Dilution?

Net Income / # of Shares Outstanding A) $0.56 per share B) firms disclose the potential for dilution from options they have awarded by reporting Diluted EPS, which shows the EPS the company WOULD have if awarded stock options were exercised. So in the example above, if Petco gave its executives 200,00 shares, the diluted EPS would be: 2 million / 3.8 million shares = $0.53

PV = C/(r-g) PV = 1000 / (.05 - .02) PV = $33,333.33

Growing Perpetuity Formula

PV = C/(r-g) C= cash flow, PV = present value (youd invest today) g = growth rate r = interest rate
