You want to save $X in a retirement account today (year 0) so that when you retire in 28 years you can make annual withdrawals of $137,000 for 15 years (your first annual withdrawal is at time 28). At the end of the 15 annual withdrawals you want to have $230,000 left in your retirement account so that you can bequeath them to your grandchildren. If the interest rate is 9.00%, how much is $X?

$113,953.02

Assume your company's pension plan promises to pay you $50,000 per year starting when you retire in 34 years (the first payment is 34 years from now) and increase the payment by 3% every year after the first to compensate for inflation. You hope to live 21 years after you retire (you collect 22 payments). If your interest rate is 4%, what is the value today of your pension plan?

$262,431.25

averages over standardized periods of time can obscure the true investor experience

(the HPR)

two potential sources of benefits when owning stocks

- dividend payments - capital gains

weaknesses of the payback method

- ignores the time value of money - ignores cash flows after the payback period -biased against long-term projects -requires an arbitrary acceptance criteria

we can refer to stocks thru their ticker symbol

- maximum of 4 letters - uniquely identify a company in a point in time -(ex) Apple=APPL

coupon bonds

- pay face value at maturity - make regular coupon interest payments

payday loans are particularly tough for the interest-on-interest they create

---

Bond

-a financial security where the issuer promises to make payments to the holder over time -its an IOU -not a standardized security like a share of stock -one bond may have very different characteristics than the next one -*an enforceable legal contract*

pure discount bond

-also called zero coupon bonds bc they make no coupon payments -sell at a discount(under face value) -typically for short maturity -treasuring bills are examples of pure discounts -only one branch of the government that can borrow money on behalf of the govt(US treasury)

value of financial securities = PV of expected future cash flows

-bond value is determined by the present value of the coupon payments and par value -getting the expectation of future cash flows can be really complicated sometimes

bonds are said to be sold at...

-discount if the market price is less than face value -premium if market price is greater than face value -at par if market price is equal to face value

disadvantages of IRR

-does not distinguish between investing and borrowing -IRR may not exist, or there may be multiple IRRs -scaling and timing problem

advantages of the payback method

-easy to understand -biased toward liquidity

advantages of IRR

-easy to understand and communicate

beta coefficient

-measures systematic risk in an asset relative to a large portfolio of assets in the market(M) -if M is truly large, it should have only systematic risk -typically M is the S&P 500 index

pure discount bonds are usually super short term

-remember these don't make coupon payments -in the US zero coupon bonds arent as common, but in other countries in europe they can have super long bonds (like 30 years) that are still pure discount/zero coupon

replacement chain

-repeat projects until they begin and end at the same time -compare NPV for the "repeated projects"

risk

-returns show deceptively little variation -false sense of security so you end up taking on more risk -then a surprise hits and you lose big -fat tails are embedded in financial assets: sporadic releases of info mean sporadic big shocks -standard deviation is a measure of risk -returns are not perfectly normal or symmetric though -fat tails in normal stats jargon: called excess kurtosis

capital intensity ratio

-total assets/sales -amount of assets needed to generate $1 of sales

typical timeline of payments in a bond with T years maturity and n payments per year. this is just the basic/standard case, remember bonds can get exotic

X Inc. has the following expected dividends: $0.50 in one year, $5.00 in two years, and $2.10 in three years. After that, its dividends are expected to decrease by 4.00% per year forever (so that year 4's dividend will be 4.00% less than $2.10 and so on). If X Inc.'s equity cost of capital is 6.00%, what is its current stock price?

0.5/1.06 + 5/1.06^2 + 2.1/0.06+.04 * 1/1.06^2 =23.61

Suppose a savings account offers you an annual interest rate of 15.00%. if the annual inflation rate is 10.00%, what is your real rate?

1 + real = (1+1.15)/(1+1.10) real = 4.55

You want to achieve a real return of 10.50% in your investments. If you expect the inflation rate to be 16.00%, what nominal return do you need?

Suppose you bought a new home for $340,000 using a 30-year mortgage with monthly payments of $1,825.19. The annual interest rate of the mortgage is 5%. After the first 4years (48 monthly payments), how much money have you paid in interest and how much in principal?

1. find how much is the new balance of the loan after the first year of payments. the new balance represents the PV of all the remaining payments: C/(r/paymentsperyear)*(1-1/(1+r)^remaining pmts ^ this shows how much is still owed on the mortgage. the amount of money paid in principal is the difference between the original balance and this new balance original balance-new balance (the new balance is how much money is left to be paid on the mortgage) the amount of money you paid in interest is the difference between the 12 monthly payments made so far and the amount of money paid in principal: (payments per year)(remaining years)(original balance)-principle= amount of money paid in interest answer: Interest: $65,951.28; Principal: $21,658.00

Suppose you bought a new home for $330,000 using a 30-year mortgage with monthly payments of $1,894.46. The annual interest rate of the mortgage is 5.6%. After the first 4 years (48 monthly payments), how much money have you paid in interest and how much in principal?

1. find how much is the new balance of the loan after the first year of payments. the new balance represents the PV of all the remaining payments: C/(r/paymentsperyear)*(1-1/(1+r)^remaining pmts 1894.46/(.056/12)*(1-1/(1.056/12)^312 ^ this shows how much is still owed on the mortgage. the amount of money paid in principal is the difference between the original balance and this new balance original balance-new balance (the new balance is how much money is left to be paid on the mortgage) principle = 330,000-310979.1. the amount of money you paid in interest is the difference between the 12 monthly payments made so far and the amount of money paid in principal: (payments per year)(remaining years)(original balance)-principle= amount of money paid in interest (12)(26)(1894.46)-19020.81 = 71,913.30

Each year for the next 25 years (years 1 to 25) you will deposit $X dollars in your retirement account. When you retire you want to make 20 annual withdrawals (Your first withdrawal will be at time 26). The first withdrawal is for $55,000, and each withdrawal after will increase by 2%. If the interest rate on your retirement account is 6.9%, how much is $X?

1. find the PV of all the withdrawals, and then that will be equal to the PV of all deposits. PV of withdrawals: (55000/0.069-0.02)(1-(1.02/1.069)^20)/(1.069)^25 = 128,874 2. solve for X by making the PV of deposits match the value found above: 128,875=(X/.069)(1-(1/1.069)^25) so X equals 10,959.33

the YTM is the return if we buy the bond right now and:

1. keep it until it matures 2. issues does not default -this makes bonds unique in the asset world, as you know your return ahead of time. great for planning -you do not have to keep the bond all the way until the end. but if you do keep it all the way to the end, you know for sure how much money you're getting

from survey evidence, we know firms use more decision rules than NPV

1. payback method 2. internal rate of return (IRR)

most common types of bonds

1. pure discount 2. coupon bonds 3. consols

2 types of US Treasury coupon securities:

If X Inc.'s equity cost of capital is 11.00%, what is its current stock price?

1.5/1.11 + 3/(1.11)^2 + 1.7/(.11-.02) * 1/1.11^2 =19.12

Suppose a 5-year bond with $100 face value, 4.00% coupon rate and quarterly coupons is trading for $101.50. If the yield to maturity of the bond changes to 10.00%, what is the percentage change in its price?

1/(.1/4) * (1-1/(1+.1/4)^20)+ 100/(1+.1/4)^20 =76.616 to find the change in price: (76.616-101.5)/101.5 =-24.52%

If the economy enters a recession, MCD will probably not do great. Why? Are all of your other assets insensitive to a recession?

A recession is a systematic risk because it affects every asset in the market.

interest rate per compounding period =

APR / M (where M is the number of compounding periods)

a typical payday loan will charge $15 for every $100 loan every two weeks. What is the APR of this?

APR = 0.15*26 = 390% EAR = (1+(3.9/26))^26 -1 = 36.85 -> 3685%

interest rates are usually quoted as Annual Percentage Rates(APR). this is the rate that does not take into account the effect of compounding

APR is useful because it tells us how much the interest rate is per compounding period; however, the APR does not tell us what the true annual interest rate is

If MCD is only 1 stock out of 100 in your investment portfolio, then you only feel about 1/00 of the 10% risk the new CEO is clueless.

All of your other assets are insensitive to this risk. If you have 500 stocks in your portfolio, then you feel it even less. As you add more assets to your portfolio, you feel the unsystematic risk of each less and less. At the limit (as you add many many assets) you no longer care about unsystematic risk.

with amortized loans, though the payment (C) is fixed, the interest payment is reduced while the principle payment is increased. why?

The periodic payment amount is fixed, but the breakdown of interest and principal on each payment is determined by the interest balance on the day the payment is received. If a borrower makes their payment early, there will be less interest to pay; therefore, more of their payment will be applied to principal. Conversely, if they pay late, there will be more interest to cover, and so less will apply to principal.

You are evaluating a project with initial investment (at year 0) of $220,000 that is expected to produce annual profits of $21,000 for 15 years starting at year 1. Your firm's cost of capital is 10.00% and their preferred payback period is 5 years or less. Will your firm accept or reject the project if they follow the payback rule?

payback rule = need to recover costs within specified amount of time find the PV of the benefits using 5 as the time(the longest it could be) and see if it has matched or surpassed the PV of the costs PV(B) = 79606.52216 in five years so it has not recovered the costs within the preferred payback period answer: reject

Netflix just paid a dividend of $0.4 this year (year 0). You expect Netflix's dividend to grow by 4% per year. If the firm's equity cost of capital is 10%, what is the price per share of Netflix 10 years from now?

price = .6157816/(.1-.04) =10.26

Apple will pay a dividend of $4.20 this coming year (year 1). If you expect Apple's dividend to grow by 9% per year, what is its current price per share if the firm's equity cost of capital is 14%.

price = 4.2/(.14-.09) =84

PE ratio =

price per share (stock price) / earnings per share

You have a 10-year bond, with $1,000 face value, 6.50% coupon rate, annual coupon payments, and yield to maturity of 4.50%. What is its price?

price= 65/0.045 * (1-1/(1+.045)^10)+ 1000/(1+.045)^10 answer: 1,158.25

You want to save $X amount of dollars today (time 0) in a savings account that pays an annual interest rate of 9.00% so that starting at time 5 you can withdraw $65 every year forever. How much is X?

pv at time 5 = 65/.09 = 722.2222.. pv at time 0 = 722.22/1.09^4 = 511.6404 $511.64

Holding Period Return

rate of return over a given investment period

what does the quick ratio indicate?

ratio more than one = good ratio less than one = need to create more liquidity to sell more of that inventory; you might not be able to turn inventory into cash at any given time

product costs

raw materials, direct labor expense, and manufacturing overhead

gordon and shapiro growth model (1956)

reasonable extension: dividends grow at constant rate g

Preferred shareholders:

receive a dividend every period

Each year for the next 28 years (years 1 to 28) you will deposit $X dollars in your retirement account. When you retire you want to make 20 annual withdrawals (Your first withdrawal will be at time 29). The first withdrawal is for $46,000, and each withdrawal after will increase by 1%. If the interest rate on your retirement account is 4.6%, how much is $X?

refer to the formula on formula sheet to solve for the PV of withdrawals and then use that number to solve for X answer: $11,734.23

fixed assts are:

relatively liquid

Suppose you need to borrow money. Bank X charges 10.000% compounded monthly on its loans; Bank Y charges 10.150% compounded semiannually; Bank Z charges 10.650% compounded annually. Which bank is best for you?

remember m = # of compounding periods compute the EAR for each bank and pick the lowest EAR = (1+(APR/m)^m -1 X- .10471 Y- .10407 Z- .1065 Bank Y has the lowest EAR by just a little bit answer: Bank Y

what does the times interest earned ratio indicate?

represents how well a company has interest obligations covered. if the ratio is less than one, need to bring in more interest

income

revenue - expenses

gross profit

revenues - cost of goods sold

finding the YTM of a coupon bond analytically is quite difficult

see below example

period costs

selling, general, and administrative expenses

capital gains=

sellingprice - buyingprice

You have been offered a unique investment opportunity. If you invest $2,900 today (at year 0), you'll receive annual payments of $900 at the end of each of the next 7 years, starting at year 1. Approximately, what is the internal rate of return (IRR) of this investment opportunity?

set up NPV equation and honestly just plug in answer choice for the rate that will make the equation equal to 0 answer: 24.44%

expected value =

sigmaN * Ri / N

variance =

sigmaN(Ri-expected value)^2 / N-1

multiple cash flows

simply look at the problem as a series of single payments and calculate their PVs and FVs separately

aggregation

smaller investment proposals are added up and treated as one big project

a fertilizer company can create a new environmentally friendly fertilizer. the fertilizer will require a new factory that can be built at a cost of $81.6 million after the first and last four years. the firm's cost of capital is 10%. if the firm requires all projects to have a payback period of two years or less, would the frim undertake the project under this rule? what if the company requires 3 years?

solve for PV at year 2 and compare to cost. solve for PV at year 3 and compare to cost

A janitorial services firm is considering two brands of industrial vacuum cleaners to equip their staff. Option A will cost $1900, require servicing of $500 per year, and it will last 8 years. Option B will cost $300, require servicing of $700 per year, and it will last 2 years. If the cost of capital is 7.00%, which is the better option, given that the firm has an ongoing requirement for vacuum cleaners?

solve for the PV of each option using this formula: costs+(annual op costs/rate)(1-(1/1+r)^years) compare the PVs and accept the one with the better PV(one with the higher PV) answer: option A

You are considering an investment. If you make the investment, you will receive $5,000each of the next 4 years (these are years 1, 2, etc.). The opportunity requires an initial investment of $2,000 at time 0 plus and additional investment of $2,000 at year 2. What is the NPV of this investment if the cost of capital is 4%?

solve for the present value of the benefits by using the PV of annuity formula. then subtract the flat 2000 investment and the 2000 in two years investment(2000/1.04^2) from the benefits PV. answer: 14,300.36

diversification

spitting capital among many instruments reduces instrument-specific risk -insurance principle: many small bets are safer than one big bet

standard deviation =

square root of the variance

suppose you buy a stock for two years. in the first year the stock is up 50%; in the second year it is down 50%. what is your HPR?

t = 0 -> 1 -> 2 50% up, 50% down 0.75-1 / 1 HPR = -25%

In a well functioning market (lots of informed buyers and sellers) the expected return of an asset (rE) is related to its systematic risk only

take any asset that has systematic and unsystematic risks: -a diversified investor will see only the systematic risk -an undiversified investor will see the total risk -the diversified investors required return(rE) is lower, why? -price= D1/(rE-g) -> the diversified investor is willing to pay a higher price -the diversified investor in the one that actually buys the asset in the market

the beta coefficient of the S&O 500 is normalized to 1, every other asset is measured relative to this

take asset i with Bi, -Bi>1: asset i has more systematic risk than the market -Bi<1: asset i has less systematic risk than the market -Bi=1: asset i has the same systematic risk than the market

efficiency in asset management/turnover

talks about the asset management within the firm and how quickly assets are converted into sales quickly and efficiency inventory needs to turn into sales which turns into a collection of accounts receivable

taxes =

taxable income * tax rate

Pawn Shop XYZ charges an interest rate of 27% per month(i.e. this is the monthly rate, not the annual rate). By regulation, they must disclose (in the fine print) an APR to their customers. What is the APR they disclose and what is their EAR?

the 27% per month within a year is the interest rate per compounding period: .27 = r/12 -> .27*12 = 3.24 = APR now convert the APR to ear using the EAR formula: EAR = 16.605 answer: APR: 324.00%; EAR: 1,660.53%

what does the market to book ratio measure

the M/B ratio compares the market value of the firm's investments to their costs. ratio less than one could mean that the firm has not been successful overall in creating value for its stockholders

You want to save $X in a retirement account today (year 0) so that when you retire in 31 years you can make a one-time withdrawal of $330,000 and travel the world for a year. After that, starting at year 32 you plan to withdraw $63,000 every year for 17 years (your first withdrawal is at time 32). If the interest rate is 8.50%, how much is $X?

the PV of a one-time withdrawal: 330,000/(1.085)^31=26,314.31 the PV of the annual withdrawals(the annuity) is: (63,000/0.085)(1-(1/(1.085)^17)/(1.085)^31=44,334.60. find the sum of the two PVs to get the answer which is: 70,648.92

why are treasuries risk free?

the US government will always pay then back, though their price still fluctuates

most business decisions(from the financial perspective) come down to cost-benefit analysis.

the analysis is complicated because the Cost and the Benefits typically happen at different points in time

You have a 10-year bond, with $1,000 face value, 6.50% coupon rate, and quarterly coupon payments. It is currently trading at a price of $1,205.217. Which of the options below corresponds to this bond's yield to maturity (in APR)?

the answer: 4% confused tbh

the plug

the designed source(s) of external financing needed to deal with any shortfall or surplus in financing and thereby bring the balance sheet into balance

liquidity

the ease with which an asset can be converted into the economy's medium of exchange

suppose you want to open a savings account and you are offered two choices by your bank. 1. 10% annual rate paid at the end of the year 2. 10% annual interest rate paid every month (compounded monthly) do you have a preference and why?

the frequency of payments in a year (or in compounding periods) matters because it builds interest on interest

inventory turnover indicates?

the higher the inventory turnover ratio is, the more efficiently the inventory is being managed

Suppose you invest $1,800 into a mutual fund that is expected to earn an annual rate of return of 7%. After 16 years, how much is the interest on interest you earned?

the interest on interest is the difference between the FV WITH COMPOUNDING and the FV with just simple interest.

Yield to Maturity

the interest rate that sets the present value of the promised bond payments equal to the current market price of the bond

the Effective Annual Rate (EAR)

the interest rate that takes into account the effect of compounding; the EAR is the rate with annual compounding that gives the same result as the APR with the true compounding; the EAR is the rate with annual compounding that achieves the same FV1

what does the structure of assets for a firm reflect?

the line of business the firm is in and the managerial decisions about how much cash and inventory to have and about credit policy, fixed asset acquisition, and so on

Capital Structure

the mixture of debt and equity maintained by a firm

You need a 30-year, fixed rate mortgage to buy a new home for $250,000. Your mortgage bank will lend you the money at an annual interest rate of 6.40%. What is your monthly payment?

the monthly interest rate is 6.4%/12 = 0.5333%, and there are 30*12 = 360 monthly payments. the monthly payment is then: (250000*.00533)/(1-(1/(1.0053))^360) = 1563.76

Suppose you save $11,000 in an account that pays a 5.8% interest rate compounded monthly. What is you balance after 2 years?

the monthly interest rate will be 0.48333%. solve for the future value at time 24: 11000(1+.004833)^24 = 12,349.50

the equilibrium price is set by the diversified investor

the only risk that carries an expected return is the systematic risk *how can we measure systematic risk in an asset??* see next card

variable "C"

the payment in one type of loan

(amortized loan example) you want to buy a house worth $200,00. your bank offers you a 30-year mortgage with a 6% interest rate and monthly payments. what is your monthly payment?

the present value is the 200,000 dollars, the rate is .06 divided by the 12 months in a year(which is 0.005). 30 years times 12 months per year is a time of 360. plug this into the annuity formula and solve for c. C = 1.999

You need a 30-year, fixed rate mortgage to buy a new home for $250,000. Your mortgage bank will lend you the money at an annual interest rate of 5.20%. What is your monthly payment?

the present value is the 250,000 dollars, the rate is 5.2% divided by the 12 months in a year(which is 0.0043). 30 years times 12 months per year is a time of 360. plug this into the annuity formula and solve for c. c= answer: $1,372.78

Which of the following is a systematic risk for Exxon (an oil company)?

the price of oil declines by half

return on assets is?

the profit per dollar of assets

You want to buy a car that costs $67,000. The car dealer offers to finance the purchase with a 4 year loan with an interest rate of 8.00% and quarterly payments (first payment in one quarter). What is your quarterly payment?

the quarterly interest rate is 8%/4=2% payment = (67000*.02)/(1-(1/(1.02)^16)= 4934.56

can the Real Rate be negative? if so what would that mean?

the real rate can be negative but im pretty sure the nominal rate has to be at least 0%

financial leverage

the use of debt in a firm's capital structure

return of a portfolio is:

the weighted average of the returns on the investments in the portfolio

risk and return seem to go hand in hand

there is no free lunch!

consols are bonds without maturity, they are perpetuities

they only make coupon payments by never a face value most of the time, the issuer can recall(buy back) the bonds paying the PV of its payments

IRR is defined as the rate r that makes the NPV equal 0

think of this like the break-even cost of capital

what if the current ratio is less than 1?

this means there are less assets to pay for your liabilities; more short term bills than short term assets; not the end of the world, just need to borrow money to pay bills

Suppose you open a savings account today (time 0) so that starting at time 4 you can withdraw $75 and every year after you can increase the amount withdrawn by 7.00% with respect to the prior year. How much do you have to deposit today?

this question is broken answer: $2,895.69

net working capital =

total current assets - total current liabilities

dividends per share

total dividends / total shares outstanding

you can lose money trading treasuries even if they are risk free

treasuries are free from default risk but not PRICE RISK

Attached are the Income Statement and Balance Sheet for Company X and Company Y. If Company X could match the return on sales (ROS) of Company Y, what would be Company X's new return on equity (ROE) if all else stays equal?

use DuPont identity formula for ROE we know company Y's ROS is .3649 now we can plug that into the ROE equation along with other values found on the balance sheet (.3649)(3800/14706)(14706/7959.48) = .174209... answer: 0.174

Microsoft is considering a new investment opportunity. If they take the investment they will receive $600 million each of the next 4 years (these are years 1, 2, . . . , 4). The opportunity requires an initial investment of $150 million at time 0 and has a cost of capital of 4%. What is the net present value of this investment?

use PV of annuity equation to find the the PV of the benefits and subtract the initial investment around that to obtain the NPV answer: $2,027.94 billions

(amortized loan example) You want to buy a car that costs$36,000. Your dealer offers you 5year financing at a 7% interest rate. Find your annual payment and does it matter if you make your first payment today or in one year?

use annuity formula where we know the PV is 36,000 and we're solving for C (the annual payment) C = 8.78

(amortized example) the interest rate is 5%. when you are 30, you will deposit X in your retirement account every year so that when you retire in 35 years you can make annual withdrawals every year for 20 years (last deposit is when you are 65, first withdrawal is when you are 66). you want to withdraw $100,000 when you are 66 and then increase the amount by 2% each year to compensate for inflation. how much is x?

use growing annuity formula and solve for the PV where C=65, r=.05, g=.02, and t=20 for the 20 withdrawals. so, PV=1466. now, discount it: 1466/1.05^36 = 253.2 (66 years - 30 years). now to find x. substitute everything into the regular annuity formula with the present value = to 253.2 and solve for C. t is 36 (for the 36 deposits)

almost everywhere we use rE when we really mean E(rE)

we call rE the equity cost of capital or the required return

the price of a stock should reflect the OV of all its future dividends

we need to make assumptions about future dividends

investments in stocks have no maturity

you can buy or sell any moment

You have a 9-year bond, with $1,000 face value, 6.50% coupon rate, and semiannual coupon payments. It is currently trading at a price of $967.026. Which of the options below corresponds to this bond's yield to maturity (in APR)?

you have to plug in the value of each YTM/frequency and check which one gives you the correct price

Suppose you buy a bond with a 5% yield to maturity (YTM). This means

your annual investment return will be 5% if you do not sell the bond and the issuer makes all of its payments
