Time Value Comparison of Single Amounts
Assume you need to choose one of the alternatives shown in the following table in exchange
for a payment of $20,000 today.
Alternative 1: $28,500 at the end of 3 years
Alternative 2: $54,000 at the end of 9 years
Alternative 3: $160,000 at the end of 20 years
Required:
Find the value today of each alternative assuming your opportunity cost is 11%.
Are all the alternatives acceptable, meaning are they worth $20,000 today?
Which alternative, if any, will you choose?
Given the financial data in the table below for two mutually exclusive alternatives, determine the
value "X" for the two alternatives to be equally attractive. Use an interest rate of 10% per year.
Initial cost
$2,500
$4,000
