To rank: The alternatives from the most valuable to least valuable if the rate of interest is 5% for a year.
Introduction:
The present value is an amount that an individual has to make for an investment at present in order to generate the cash flow in future. The present value of the cash flows can be computed by adding the cash flow of every stream.

- 1. If you receive $29 each quarter for 19 years and the discount rate is 0.05, what is the present value? (show the process and can use financial calculator)arrow_forward1. If you receive $176 each month for 12 months and the discount rate is 0.04, what is the future value? (show the process and can use financial calculator)arrow_forward1. This problem relates to Future Value, and Future income streams. Assume continuous compounding of interest. (a) Find the present value of a single future payment of FV = $50,000 to be made 20 years from now, assuming an interest rate of 5 percent. (b) Suppose you want a future income stream (annual payments) of FV (t) = 500t for 20 years. Find the present value of this income stream, assuming an interest rate of 5 percent.arrow_forward
- Assume that at the beginning of the year, you purchase an investment for $7,200 that pays $100 annual income. Also assume the investment's value has decreased to $6,800 by the end of the year. (a) What is the rate of return for this investment? (Input the amount as a positive value. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.) Rate of return % (b) Is the rate of return a positive or negative number? Positive O Negativearrow_forward1) What is the loanable funds market? 2) Calculate the following: You save $100 and want to see how much you will earn based on the following interest rates Interest Rate Value after 1 month -1% ? 0.5% ? 1% ? 2% ? 3) What supply factors affect the Loanable Funds market? 4) What demand factors affect the Loanable Funds market?arrow_forwardPlease respond b, c, d, and e if possible.arrow_forward
- Outline the concept of present value. The interest rate is 7%. Use the concept of present value to compare the difference between €200 to be received in ten years time and €300 to be received in 20 years time. Problem 1: Assume the interest rate is 6%. In each of the following three cases, state which you would rather receive and briefly explain why: €200 today or €480 in two years? €205 today or €240 in one year? €1,000 in one year or €1,220 in two years? Problem 2: A company has an investment project that would cost €10 million today and yield a payoff of €15 million in four years. Should the firm undertake the project if the interest rate is 11%? 10%? 9%? 8%? Can you calculate the exact point at which the interest rate makes the difference between profitability and non-profitability? please make sure to fully explain the reasoning behindarrow_forwardSolve this question with steps please. The subject is financial management.arrow_forwardYou are comparing two annuities. Annuity A pays $110 at the end of each year for 5 years. Annuity B pays $100 at the beginning of each year for 5 years. The rate of return on both annuities is 8 percent. Which one of the following statements is correct given this information? O Annuity B has both a higher present value and a higher future value than Annuity A. Annuity A has both a higher present value and a higher future value than Annuity B. O Annuity A has the same present value and future value as Annuity B.arrow_forward
