D7)
Consider two riskless perpetuities: (i) pays $120 every year; (ii) pays $10 every month. If the rates of returns of the two perpetuities are the same, investors must buy perpetuity (ii) because it makes more interest payments.

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.
