Present value (LO9-4)
4. You will receive $6,800 three years from now. The discount rate is 10 percent.
a. What is the value of your investment two years from now? Multiply $6,800 × (1/1.10) or divide by 1.10 (one year’s discount rate at 10 percent).
b. What is the value of your investment one year from now? Multiply your answer to part a by (1/1.10).
c. What is the value of your investment today? Multiply your answer to part b by (1/1.10).
d. Use the formula PV = FV x 1 / (1+i)^n to find the present value of $6,600 received three years from now at 10 percent interest.
CH5 #10 A company is considering two alternative marketing strategies for a new product. Introducing the product will require an outlay of $15,000. With a low price, the product will generate cash proceeds of $10,000 per year and will have a life of two years. With a high price, the product will generate cash proceeds of $18,000 but will have a life of only one year. The hurdle rate for this project is 0.05.
Which marketing strategy should be accepted?

- [6:46 am, 15/01/2022] Mahmoud: 19. Cost of Capital. Pollution Busters, Inc., is considering a purchase of 10 additional carbon sequesters for $100,000 apiece. The sequesters last for only 1 year until saturated with carbon. Then the carbon is removed and sold. (O LO4) a. Suppose the government guarantees the price of carbon. At this price, the payoff after 1 year is guaranteed to be $115,000. How would you determine the opportunity cost of capital for this investment? b. Suppose instead that the sequestered carbon has to be sold on the London Carbon Exchange. Carbon prices have been extremely volatile, but Pollution Busters' CFO learns that average rates of return from investment on that exchange have been about 20%. She thinks this is a reasonable forecast for the future. What is the opportunity cost of capital in this case?

- 58. Modified True or False T means Correct and F means Wrong Scenario: CHUGS are considering two equally risky annuities, each of which pays $5,000 per year for 10 years. Investment ORD is an ordinary annuity, while Investment DUE is an annuity due. The present value of DUE exceeds the present value of ORD, while the future value of DUE is less than the future value of ORD. The present value of ORD exceeds the present value of DUE, and the future value of ORD also exceeds the future value of DUE. If the going rate of interest decreases from 10% to 0%, the difference between the present value of ORD and the present value of DUE would remain constant. A rational investor would be willing to pay more for DUE than for ORD, so their market prices should differ.
