Document Summary

Future and present values of multiple cash flows. Time line: illustrates the process of calculating future values of multiple payments. There are two ways to calculate future values for multiple cash flows: compound the accumulated balance forward one year at a time, calculate the future value of each cash flow first and then add them up. There are two ways to calculate present values for multiple cash flows: discount back one period at a time, calculate the present values individually and add them up. Cash flow always occurs at the end of the period. Annuity present value = c *[ 1-1/(1+r)n ] / r: where c = dollars per period. Annuity due: an annuity for which the cash flow occurs at the beginning of the period: lease payments are due at the beginning of the month, usually prepayments, annuity due value = ordinary annuity value * (1+r) Perpetuity: an annuity in which the cash flows continue forever.

Question 9 5 pts

To endow a perpetuity is the same as calculating the present value (PV) of a perpetuity. Say you want to endow an annual graduation party at your alma mater. You want the event to be a memorable one, so you budget $30,000 per year forever for the party. If the university earns 8% per year on its investments, and if the first party is in one yearâs time, how much will you need to donate to endow the party?

The formula for PV of a perpetuity = C\r; = $30,000 \ 0.08; =

Lisa is considering making a 6-year loan of $15,000 to Carmax Inc. To repay Lisa, Carmax will pay $500 at the end of Year 1, $2,000 at the end of Year 2, and $2,500 at the end of Year 3, plus a fixed but currently unspecified cash flow, Y, at the end of Years 4 through 6. Lisa regards 10% compounding annually as a rate of return for Carmax. What cash flow must the investment provide at the end of each of the final 3 years, that is, what is Y? (4 points) Hints: Draw a time line. Then, recall the simple formula: 15,000 is the loan that Carmax receives today. It equals to the present values of all the future cash flows. But hard to solve for Y in this way, so we use PVA as an alternative. Starting the end of the fourth period, the beginning of the fifth year, you pay equal amount of Y for four times, so it is an annuity due problem, so you can assume PVA at point 4 can be calculated from the four payments with amount of X.
