23题：This question is asking for the present value of an annuity, but the interest rate changes during the life of the annuity. We need to find the present value of the cash flows for the last eight years first. The PV of these cash flows is: PVA2 $1,500 [ 1 – 1 / [1 + .09/12 ]⌒96 / .09/12 ] $102,387.66 Note that this is the PV of this annuity exactly seven years from today. Now, we can discount this lump sum to today. The value of this cash flow today is: PV $102,387.66 / [1 + .13/12 ]⌒84 $41,415.70 Now, we need to find the PV of the annuity for the first seven years. The value of these cash flows today is: PVA1 $1,500 [ 1 – 1 / [1 + .13/12 ]⌒84 / .13/12 ] $82,453.99 The value of the cash flows today is the sum of these two cash flows, so: PV $82,453.99 + 41,415.70 $123,869.99 24题The monthly interest rate is the annual interest rate divided by 12, or: Monthly interest rate .104 / 12 Monthly interest rate .00867 Now we can set the present value of the lease payments equal to the cost of the equipment, or $3,500. The lease payments are in the form of an annuity due, so: PVAdue 1 + r C 1 – [1/ 1 + r ]⌒t / r $3,500 1 + .00867 C 1 – [1/ 1 + .00867 ]⌒24 / .00867 C $160.76 25题Here, we need to compare to options. In order to do so, we must get the value of the two cash flow streams to the same time, so we will find the value of each today. We must also make sure to use the aftertax cash flows, since it is more relevant. For Option A, the aftertax cash flows are: Aftertax cash flows Pretax cash flows 1 – tax rate Aftertax cash flows $175,000 1 – .28 Aftertax cash flows $126,000 The aftertax cash flows from Option A are in the form of an annuity due, so the present value of the cash flow today is: PVAdue 1 + r C 1 – [1/ 1 + r ]⌒t / r PVAdue 1 + .10 $126,000 1 – [1/ 1 + .10 ]⌒31 / .10 PVAdue $1,313,791.22 For Option B, the aftertax cash flows are: Aftertax cash flows Pretax cash flows 1 – tax rate
