Summary Introduction

To make capital budgeting decision, it is required that the asset and or projects are properly evaluated. This is done as follows:

Estimated the cash flows which is expected to be generated from the project or asset

Evaluate the riskiness of the project and determine an appropriate discount rate specific for the project

Determine the present value of all the expected cash flows, this is done by using the below equation

PV of CF=CF^1(1+r)1+CF^2(1+r)2+.......+CFn^(1+r)n=t=1nCFt^(1+r)t    

Here,

Expected net cash flow in Period t is “CFt^

Required rate of return is “r

Now, compare the present value of future expected cash flows with the cost of the project. If the present value of cash inflows is higher than the present value of the cost of the asset or project, the project shall be accepted, as it would generate profit.

A company is expected to generate $36,950 per year for the next six years. The required rate of return is 10%.

Expert Solution & Answer

Explanation of Solution

Present value of the cash flows of $36,950 for 6 years at 10% can be calculated using present value annuity formula as below:

PV of CF=CF×[1(1+r)nr]        =$36,950×[1(1+0.10)60.10]           =$36,950×[10.5644739300537770.10]         =$36,950×0.4355260699462230.10             =$160,926.882845129 or $160,926.88

Therefore, the value of the project would be $160,926.88.

An annuity provides payments at the end of each two-year period for twenty years. It pays $1,000 at the end of the first period and increases the payment by $1,000 in each subsequent period, so that at the end of the tenth period it pays $10,000. Given a 2% nominal annual interest rate compounded semiannually, determine in which of the following ranges is the present value of this annuity. please use tvm if neededI
A. What is the amount of the annuity purchase required if you wish to receive a fixed payment of $200,000 for 20 years? Assume that the annuity will earn 10 percent per year.B. Calculate the annual cash flows (annuity payments) from a fixed-payment annuity if the present value of the 20-year annuity is $1 million and the annuity earns a guaranteed annual return of 10 percent. The payments are to begin at the end of the current year.C. Calculate the annual cash flows (annuity payments) from a fixed-payment annuity if the present value of the 20-year annuity is $1 million and the annuity earns a guaranteed annual return of 10 percent. The payments are to begin at the end of five years. I need help solving question C on a financial calculator.
John wants to buy a property for $105,000 and wants an 80 percent loan for $84,000. A lenderindicates that a fully amortizing loan can be obtained for 30 years (360 months) at 6 percentinterest; however, a loan fee of $3,500 will also be necessary for John to obtain the loan.a. How much will the lender actually disburse?b. What is the APR for the borrower, assuming that the mortgage is paid off after 30 years (fullterm)?c. If John pays off the loan after five years, what is the effective interest rate? Why is it differ-ent from the effective interest rate in (b)?d. Assume the lender also imposes a prepayment penalty of 2 percent of the outstanding loanbalance if the loan is repaid within eight years of closing. If John repays the loan after fiveyears with the prepayment penalty, what is the effective interest rate?
