The value of
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The five-year
Time line of the sales:
Note: The cash flows in the given information are semiannual, so it is necessary to find the effective semiannual rate. The annual percentage rate is 8%.
Formula to calculate the monthly rate with the annual percentage rate:
Compute the monthly rate with the annual percentage rate:
Hence, the monthly rate is 0.0067
Formula to calculate the effective semiannual rate:
Compute the effective semiannual rate:
Note: To calculate the effective semiannual rate, the time period is assumed to be six months. The APR is the annual percentage rate. The monthly rate for the annual percentage rate is calculated above.
Hence, the effective semiannual rate is 0.0406 or 4.06%.
Formula to calculate the present value annuity:
Note: C denotes the annual cash flow, r denotes the rate of exchange, and t denotes the period.
Compute the present value annuity at year 9:
Note: This is the value for the first period of six months previous to the first payment, thus it is the value at the year nine. Therefore, the value at different periods asked in the question utilizes this value of nine years from now.
Hence, the present value annuity at year nine is $57,395.02
Formula to calculate the present value:
Note: r denotes the rate of discount and t denotes the number of years.
Compute the present value at year 5:
Note: The present value for the fifth year can also be calculated using the effective annual rate, the present values for the remaining years can also be calculated using the effective annual rate.
Hence, the value of annuity at 5 year is $41,721.62
Formula to calculate the effective annual rate:
Compute the effective annual rate:
Hence, the effective annual rate 0.0830 or 8.30%
Formula to calculate the present value:
Note: r denotes the rate of discount and t denotes the number of years.
Compute the present value at year 5:
Hence, the value of annuity at 5 year is $41,721.62
The value of annuity for the other years is calculated as follows:
Note: The present value at year 3 is calculated using the calculated r values
Hence, the value of year three is $35,571.70
Note: The present value at year 0 is calculated using the calculated r values
Hence, the current value is $28,003.99.

- Problem 6-35 Financial Break-Even Analysis The technique for calculating a bid price can be extended to many other types of problems. Answer the following questions using the same technique as setting a bid price; that is, set the project NPV to zero and solve for the variable in question. Martin Enterprises needs someone to supply it with 152,000 cartons of machine screws per year to support its manufacturing needs over the next five years, and you've decided to bid on the contract. It will cost $1,920,000 to install the equipment necessary to start production; you'll depreciate this cost straight-line to zero over the project's life. You estimate that, in five years, this equipment can be salvaged for $162,000. Your fixed production costs will be $277,000 per year, and your variable production costs should be $10.60 per carton. You also need an initial investment in net working capital of $142,000.
