Head & Shoulders shampoo insured a spokesman football player’s long hair for $1 million with Lloyd’s of London. The insurance payout would be triggered if he lost at least 60% of his hair during an on-field event. The insurance company placed the odds of a payout at 1% in year 5. Determine how much Head & Shoulders had to pay in a lump-sum amount for the insurance policy if Lloyd’s of London wanted a rate of return of 20% per year, compounded quarterly.
The future worth in year 10 of a geometric gradient series of cash flows was found to be $80,000. If the interest rate was 15% per year and the annual rate of increase was 9% per year, what was the cash flow amount in year 1?
For the cash flow revenues shown below, find the value of G that makes the equivalent annual worth in years 1 through 7 equal to $500. The interest rate is 9% per year.

- An entrepreneurial electrical engineer approached a large water utility with a proposal that promises to reduce the utility’s power bill by at least 15% through installation of patented surge protectors. The proposal states that the engineer will not be paid for the first year, but beginning in year 2, she will receive three equal, annual payments that are equivalent to 60% of the power bill savings achieved in year 1 due to the protectors. Assuming that the utility’s power bill of $1 million per year is reduced by 15% after installation of the surge protectors, what is (a) the present worth in year 0 of the uniform payments to the engineer, and (b) their future worth in year 4?
