b.Ben should not accept $36,000 for $25,000 at the end of 4 years. Why not? Because if he invests the initial $25,000 at 10 percent per annum compounded annually, he will have a total of $36,603, $603 more than the amount the person offered him.

=$4,566,941

Option 3 should be chosen because it has the highest present value. In other words, if receiving the equivalent amounts for each of the 3 payment patterns, alternative 3 would yield the largest payout today.

e.The present value is the value of future cash flows at the current point in time. Thus, the values in Part (a) represent the present value of the two different annuities.

f.The future value is the value of future cash flows at a future point in time. Since the ends of Periods 1, 2, and 3 are all in the future, the value of the cash flows at those points in time all qualify as future values.

g.Annuity due is most valuable. The present value of annuity due is $174.08 more than the present value of ordinary annuity. In other words, if we were to receive $700 each year for the next 3 years, the payment pattern of the annuity due (payment to be received at the beginning of each year) should be more preferable to us than the payment pattern of the ordinary annuity (payment to be received at the end of each year).

b.By computing the present value of each option's future cash flows, the cost of each option is comparable. Since Option 3 has the lowest present value, it appears to the best deal for Dunn Drafting Company.

Option 1 now minimizes the present value of future cash flows. Thus, it appears that Option 1 is now the best option for Dunn Drafting Company.

a.Since the Croziers plan to invest a lump sum today and then withdraw the money in the form of an annuity, two steps are required to determine how much the Croziers must invest today to pay for Ryan's college education. The first step is to calculate how much money they will need fifteen years from now when Ryan enters college to make the four payments at the beginning of each year Ryan is in college (i.e., the value of the annuity). The second step is to calculate how much they would have to invest now so that it will grow to the value calculated in the first step over the next fifteen years. The calculations are shown below.

Present value of college expenses fifteen years in the future:

Value=$40,000  Present value factor for an annuity due for i = 10% and n = 4

=$33,389.00

b.The present value of fourteen annual payments must equal the present value of $33,389 calculated in part (a). By using the following formula, the amount of the annual payments can be calculated.

The price that Christie is willing to pay for the stock is comprised of two components: the present value of the dividends she expects to receive from holding the investment and the present value of the proceeds she will receive when she sells the investment. The total present value is calculated as follows.

Present value=Present value of dividends + Present value of proceeds

a.To determine whether the offer of $110,000 today is a good deal, the future cash flows must be converted into equivalent values in present dollars (i.e., present values). The contract specifies two types of future cash flows: $2,000 at the beginning of each year for ten years and a lump-sum receipt of $300,000 in ten years. The present value of the two types of cash flows are calculated below.

(1)Present value of annual receipts:

Value=$2,000  Present value factor for an annuity due for i = 10% and n = 10

=$2,000  6.75902 (from Table 6)

=$13,518.04

(2)Present value of lump-sum receipt:

Value=$300,000  Present value factor for i =10% and n = 10

=$300,000  .38554 (from Table 4)

=$115,662.00

(3)Total present value:

Value=$13,518.04 + $115,662.00

=$129,180.04

Since the present value of the future cash flows exceeds $110,000, it would not be wise for Joy Don Corp. to accept $110,000 in cash today in place of the note. By accepting the cash of $110,000 now, Joy would be worse off by more than $19,000.

b.As the discount rate increases, the present value of future cash flows decreases. Since the present value of the future cash flows discounted at 10% exceeds $110,000, the discount rate at which Joy Don would be wise to accept $110,000 in cash instead of the note must be greater than 10%. Try i = 12%.

Present value=($2,000  6.32825 from Table 6) + ($300,000  .32197 from Table 4)

=$12,656.50 + $96,591.00

=$109,247.50

With a discount rate of 12%, the present value of the future cash flows is slightly less than $110,000, which implies that Joy Don would be better off accepting $110,000 in cash today rather than accepting the note.
