A friend of yours hasn't taken this course and therefore does not appreciate the time-value of money. He offers to pay you back for that time he borrowed money and gives you two options: 1. Two equal payments of $1030, today and in 2 years, or 2. One single payment of $2060 (twice the amount) in 1 year.. Now, because you appreciate the time-value of money, you realize that, while the two options appear to have equal value, the two-payment option has a greater value. Assuming money can earn 11% compounded quarterly, how much of a difference is there between the values of the two options? Use today as your focal date and ensure your answer is positive.

Suppose a wealthy individual approaches you and says, “Because of your outstanding ability to manage money, I am prepared to present you with a tax-free gift of $1,000. If you prefer, however, I will postpone the presentation for a year, at which time I will guarantee that you will receive a tax-free gift of $X.” (For purposes of this example, assume that the guarantee is risk-free.) In other words, you can choose to receive $1,000 today or receive $X 1 year from today. Which would you choose if X equals (1) $1,000, (2) $1,050, (3) $1,100, (4) $1,500, (5) $2,000, (6) $5,000, (7) $10,000, (8) $100,000? Suppose the student is guaranteed to receive $1,100 one year from today, and nothing thereafter, if $1,000 is invested today in a particular venture. What is the return on the student’s investment?

Would Qualifying an Indorsement Be Ethical? Suppose you have taken a promissory note for $3,500 payable in 12 months with interest at 10 percent as payment for some carpentry work you did for a friend. You have some reason to believe the maker of the note is in financial difficulty and may not be able to pay the note when it is due. You discuss with an elderly neighbor the possibility of her buying the note from you as an investment, and she agrees to buy it from you for $3,000. Would it be ethical for you to indorse the note with a qualified indorsement ("without recourse")?

Emma plans to loan $1,000 to her friend, who will pay a simple interest rate of 5.8% every year for the loan. If no payments are made and no further borrowing occurs between them for 13 years, then how much money will Emma' s friend owe her? $1,061.36 $1,754.00 $2,081.20 $158.00 Now, assume that Emma's friend volunteers to pay compound interest instead of simple interest for her loan.

.You are negotiating to make a 7-year loan of $25,000 to Breck Inc. To repay you, Breck will pay $2,500 at the end of Year 1, $5,000 at the end of Year 2, and $7,500 at the end of Year 3, plus a fixed but currently unspecified cash flow, X, at the end of each year from Year 4 through Year 7. Breck is essentially riskless, so you are confident the payments will be made. You regard 8% as an appropriate rate of return on a low risk but illiquid 7-year loan. What cash flow must the investment provide at the end of each of the final 4 years, that is, what is X?
