249, 766.40 06 The present value annuity factor for percent and 25 years (term in brackets) equals 12.783356 Divide both sides of the equation by this number to solve for the $PMT: PMT = 1, 249, 766.40 = $97, 765.12 12.783356 If the account earns percent per year, you will receive payments of $97,765.12 per year for 25 years 12 m 0.2999 APR − = 1 + 21 EAR = 1 + 12 m 34475 = 34.48% − = 0.3 23 The present value of your stream of monthly car payments plus your down payment should be less than or equal to the maximum price you’re willing to pay for the car Taking the present value of the stream at the quoted APR of percent: 1 − + 06 $399.25 × 12 06 12 ( ) × 12 = $17, 000 The present value of your payments at an APR of percent equals $17,000 Adding your down payment of $1,000, you would be paying exactly $18,000 for the car, $1,000 more than you intended, so their offer is not fair 25 In this case, set up the present value annuity expression and solve for the payment to see if it’s less than the maximum amount of $299 If you’re paying $15,112 for the truck, and have $2,000 to put down, you need to finance $13,112: 1 − + 0.045 $PMT × 12 045 12 ( ) × 12 = $13,112 The present value annuity factor for an APR of 4.5 percent and 48 monthly payments (term in brackets) equals 43.85294 Dividing both sides of the equation by this number solves for the monthly payment: $PMT = 13,112 = $298.99 43.85294 The monthly payment is $1 lower than the maximum specified by your bank, so at a price of $15,112, you can afford the truck 306 27 Applied Equity Analysis and Portfolio Management 2500 = $41, 666.67 0.06 29 This solution is slightly tricky It’s helpful to remember one characteristic of present value annuity and perpetuity formulas—they discount the cash flow stream back one period before the first cash flow Therefore, when we apply the present value of a growing perpetuity formula: PVGrowing Perpetuity = CF(1 + g) 5000(1.03) = = 85, 833.33 i−g 09 − 03 We’re taking the present value of all the cash flows from periods through infinity Since there is also a payment at time period zero, we also have to add that in to calculate the full value of the contractual cash flows: $85,833.33 + 5,000 = $90,833.33 A single lump-sum payment of $90,833.33 at time zero is therefore economically equivalent to the growing perpetuity described by the legal judgment 31 Whenever you’re given beginning and ending wealth levels in a sequence and asked to calculate the average annual compound rate of growth, the intermediate values can be ignored In this case you can use the formula from section 2.14, where PV = $1.00 and FV = $1.45: FV r = PV n 1.45 −1 = 1.00 − = 0.097342 = 9.73% If, however, you were only given year-by-year growth rates, you could then calculate the average annual compound rate of growth using the geometric return formula: n + i j ) ∏ j =1 ( n −1 The year-by-year growth rates are: 1.08 − = 0.080000 = 8.000%, 1.00 1.21 − = 0.12037 = 12.037%, 1.08 1.34 1.45 − = 0.107438 = 10.744%, − = 0.082089 = 8.209% 1.21 1.34 Plugging into the geometric return formula gives: [(1.08000)(1.12037)(1.10744)(1.08209) − = 0.09734 = 9.73% 307 The Time Value of Money and the Basics of Valuation 33 Net Present Value (NPV) of the investment = PV of the cash benefits – PV costs 900, 000 900, 000 900, 000 900, 000 + + + 1.12 (1.12)2 (1.12)3 (1.12)4 + 1, 000, 000 − 2,100, 000 = $1, 201, 041.27 (1.12)5 Did you see that the project’s cash flows in years through could be discounted using the PV annuity formula? 1− 1, 000, 000 900, 000 (1.12)4 + − 2,100, 000 = $1, 201, 041.27 (1.12)5 12 The present value of the project’s cash benefits is significantly larger than the present value of the project’s costs (the project has positive NPV); the investment should therefore be made 35 (Study the solutions until you fully understand why both ways of solving the problem are equivalent.) The value of the cash flow stream equals the present value of the expected future cash flows We need to take the present value of the stream to determine what single payment at time zero is equivalent to receiving the payments at the end of periods 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 There are five payments total; the easiest solution is to simply discount each cash flow back to the present manually: PV = 10, 000 10, 000 10, 000 10, 000 10, 000 + + + + = $26, 651.995 (1.12)2 (1.12)4 (1.12)6 (1.12)8 (1.12)10 Notice that the five payments of $10,000 also meet the definition of an annuity: all the cash flows are equal, the time periods between the cash flows are equal, and the first payment occurs one period from now—provided you define a “period” as two years instead of the customary one year To use the annuity formula, you need to first convert the APR of 12 percent into a twoyear rate: (1.12)2 − = 0.2544 = 25.44% You can now take the present value of the five payments of $10,000 using the TVM annuity formula, using 25.44 percent as the interest rate: 1− PVA = $10, 000 × (1.2544)5 0.2544 = $26, 651.995 308 Applied Equity Analysis and Portfolio Management 1− 37 $2, 000, 000 × (1.12)12 = $12, 388, 748 12 1− $2, 750, 000 × (1.12)6 = $11, 306, 370 12 The first athlete’s contract is more valuable at a discount rate of 12 percent 1− 12 = $7 , 450, 244 $2, 000, 000 × (1.25) 25 1− = $8,116, 416 $2, 750, 000 × (1.25) 25 The second athlete’s contract is more valuable at a discount rate of 25 percent The relative value of the contracts changes as the discount rate rises because of the magnitude and timing of the cash flows The first contract features smaller payments spread over a longer period, while the second contract features higher payments spread over a shorter period When the cost of waiting is relatively low—12 percent—the longer time it takes to collect the higher nominal payments from the first contract is not that “expensive”; therefore, the contract’s value holds up well When the cost of waiting is relatively more expensive, however—25 percent—the last few payments in the first contract undergo a large amount of “discounting” because they take so long to receive This contract therefore loses a lot more value The second contract’s payments not lose as much value because they are received sooner; the second contract therefore holds more value as the discount rate
