Suppose you win the Powerball lottery this year, which is worth $500 million. You can choose to take a lump sum now of $475 million or you can "annuitize" your winnings. Annuitization means that you will receive the total jackpot money in 5 equal annual payments of $100 million starting next year. Assume that your lottery winnings are not taxed. If the interest rate is 1.0 percent, the present value of the 5 equal payments is $ million. (Round your response to two decimal places.)
Suppose you bought a condo for $100,000 financing it with a $20,000 down payment of your own funds and an $80,000 mortgage loan from a bank. Now, instead of (a) or (b), suppose the value of the condo fell from $100,000 to $70,000. Assuming you paid $100,000, financing it with $20,000 of your own money and $80,000 with a mortgage loan, and ignoring interest and other costs, calculate your rate of return on your asset (ROA) and your rate of return on equity (ROE). What is the value of your equity stake in the condo after the price fall?
