16. Section: 5.2 Simple Interest
Learning Objective: 5.2
Level of difficulty: Basic
Solution:
As this is simple interest, Dmitri will earn the same amount of interest each year. The annual
amount of interest is 8% * initial investment = .08 * $25,000 = $2,000.
a. $2,000
b. $2,000

17. Section: 5.2 Simple Interest


Learning Objective: 5.2
Level of difficulty: Basic
Solution:
a. In one year he will owe P x k = $1,500 x 6% = $90 of interest.
b. After three years, the total (principal and interest) owing will be: P + (n x P x k) = $1,500 + (3
x $1,500 x 6%) = $1,770.

18. Section: 5.2 Simple Interest


Learning Objective: 5.2
Level of difficulty: Basic
Solution:
As the exact amount of interest owing each year will be paid, there is no “compounding.” The
amount of each annual payment will be P x k = $2,500 x 6% = $150. Unfortunately, these payments
never reduce the principal owing, so the loan will never be paid off.

19. Section: 5.2 Simple Interest


Learning Objective: 5.2
Level of difficulty: Basic
Solution:
Khalil will be paid interest each month for 12 months, but without compounding. The total interest
earned is (n x P x k) = (12 x $1,200 x 0.5%) = $72.

20. Section: 5.3 Compound Interest


Learning Objective: 5.3
Level of difficulty: Basic
Solution:
The payment of compound interest means that we must compound (or find the future value of) the
amount invested (the present value):
FV12 months = $1,200  (1 + 0.005)12 = $1,274.01

Solutions Manual 5 Chapter 5

Introduction to Corporate Finance, Fourth Edition Booth, Cleary, Rakita

Of this amount, $1,200 was the original amount invested, so $74.01 of interest will be earned.

21. Section: 5.2 Simple Interest; 5.3 Compound Interest


Learning outcome: 5.2; 5.3
Level of difficulty: Basic
Solution:
A. Value = P + (n x P x k) = $24 + (389 x $24 x 5%) = $491

The most I’d pay is the present value of the investment. In this case the cash flows start
immediately ($100) and then grow by 3% per year. The present value, or the maximum I’d be
willing to pay, is $1,816.67

46. Section: 5.5 Growing Annuities and Perpetuities


Learning Objective: 5.5

Solution:

To solve this we need to realize that the present value of a perpetuity (growing or otherwise)
occurs one period prior to the first cash flow. Hence, using the growing perpetuity formula will
give us the value of the cash flows in year 4. We need to discount those back to time 0.

Solution:
a. There will be 5 x 12 = 60 monthly payments. The calculations are most easily done with a
financial calculator (TI BAII Plus),

PV = –25,000, PMT=556.11, N= 60, CPT I/Y = 1.0%


Because we used monthly payments, and months as the time period, 1.0% is the effective
monthly rate.

b. The compounding period matches the payment frequency, so the nominal rate, or quoted rate,
is:
QR = m  kmonthly = 12  1.0% = 12.0% per year.

Rent payments are typically made at the start of each month (so this is an annuity due). Over
three years, we would expect 36 monthly rent payments. However, the last month’s rent must be
paid up front, so the annuity includes only 35 payments; the present value of the last month’s rent
is $550 because it will be paid today.

It is tempting to view the first option as a perpetuity, but this would be incorrect as the man will
die at some time, and the payment will then cease. Thus, option one is an ordinary annuity, with
an uncertain number of payments. Option two is much easier to value; it includes exactly 240
monthly payments.

Using a financial calculator (TI BAII Plus),


N = 240, PMT = 3,500, I/Y = 0.5, FV = 0, , CPT PV = –488,532.70

For the first option to be a better deal, it must include enough payments so that its present value
is at least as great as for option two. Again using the calculator,
PV = –488,532.70, PMT = 2,785, I/Y = 0.5, CPT N = 420.29
So option one must continue for over 420 monthly payments to equal the value of option two.
This is just over 35 years. Hence, the man must live to be at least 100 years old for option one to
be a better deal.

Solution:

The manager is confused. To make the choice between the two options you should consider the
present value of each set of payments, not the sum of the payments. Summing the payments
assumes that the opportunity cost is zero.

For example, if your opportunity cost is 10%, then the PV of Long is $161,009. The value of the
house if $250,000 but the cost of the loan (to you) is only $161,009 – a net benefit of $88,991.
The PV of the Short option is $216,289 – in this case, with an opportunity cost of 10%, the short
option costs me $55,280 more.

If instead, your opportunity cost is 1%, then the PV of the Long option is $390,647 while the PV
of the Short option is only $333,390. By taking the Short option, you will save $57,257.

Using a financial calculator (TI BAII Plus),
PV = –1, FV = 2, I/Y = 9, PMT =0, CPT N = 8.04

68. Section: 5.6 Quoted versus Effective Rates; 5.7 Loan or Mortgage Arrangements
Learning Objective: 5.6, 5.7
Level of difficulty: Challenging
Solution:
The 60 monthly payments form an annuity whose present value is $30,000. Finding the interest
rate is most easily done with a financial calculator (TI BAII Plus):
N=60, PMT=622.75, PV= -30,000, FV =0, CPT I/Y = 0.75%
Note that we used N=60 months, so the solution is a monthly interest rate, however, the problem
asks for the effective annual rate.
k = (1 + k monthly )12 − 1 = (1 + 0.0075)12 − 1 = 9.38%

The quoted rate would be:


1 1
QR = m  [(1 + k ) 12
− 1] = 12  [(1 + 0.0938) 12
− 1] = 9.00%
Or simply:
QR = m  k monthly = 12  0.0075 = 9.00%

Answers to Concept Review Questions

5.1 Opportunity Cost

Concept review questions


1. Why does money have a “time value”?
An investor can simply store a dollar (tuck them under the bed!) and spend them in the future, in
this sense a dollar is always worth at least a dollar in the future. However this ignores the fact
that the saver has other uses for that dollar, which in economics we call an “opportunity cost” or
simply an “alternative use.” This results in a “time value” of money.
2. What is an “opportunity cost”?
The opportunity cost of money is the interest rate you can earn by investing the dollar today.

5.2 Simple Interest

Concept review questions


1. Explain how simple interest payments are determined.
Simple interest payments are n × p × k, where n is number of periods in years, p is principal and
k is the simple annual interest rate.
2. Why does simple interest take into account the time value of money?
Simple interest can be used to calculate the future value of money assuming that only the
principal in reinvested.

5.3 Compound Interest

Concept review questions


1. Explain how to compute future values and present values when using compound interest.
FVn = PV0 (1 + k)n, where PV0 is the present value, k is the compound value interest factor, n is
the number of periods and FVn is the future value in year n.
2. What is the relationship between FVIFs and PVIFs? Why does this make sense?
FVIF=1/PVIF. This relationship make sense because by definition, FVIF = (1 + k) n and PVIF =
1/(1 + k)n.
3. Why does compound interest result in higher future values than simple interest?
Compound interest refers to a process whereby interest is earned on the invested principal
amount and on any accrued interest. However, simple interest is only earned on the principal
amount.

5.4 Annuities and Perpetuities

Concept review questions

Solutions Manual 31 Chapter 5

Introduction to Corporate Finance, Fourth Edition Booth, Cleary, Rakita

1. Explain how to calculate the present value and future value of an ordinary annuity and an
annuity due.
 (1 + k ) n − 1
FVn = PMT   gives the future value of an ordinary annuity. Since each flow gets one
 k 
extra period of compounding in an annuity due, the FV (annuity due) = [FV (ordinary
annuity)](1 + k). The present value of both an annuity and an annuity due is PV0 = FVn (1 + k)n.
2. Define “perpetuity”.
Perpetuities are special annuities in that they go on forever so n goes to infinity in the annuity
equation.
3. Why is the present value of $1 million in 50 years’ time worth very little today?
If the required return is 12% a year, the present value of $1 million in 50 years’ time is $3,460.
The small present value is caused by the discounting process.

5.5 Growing Perpetuities and Annuities

Concept review questions


1. Explain how to evaluate a growing perpetuity.
Estimate the payment (PMT), the required rate of return (k), and the expected growth rate to
infinity (g), and apply Equation 5A-2.
2. Explain how to calculate the present value of a growing annuity.
Estimate the payment (PMT), the required rate of return (k), the number of years for the annuity
(n), the expected growth rate to infinity (g), and apply Equation 5A-4.

5.6 Quoted versus Effective Rates

Concept review questions


1. Why can effective rates often be very different from quoted rates?
If the quoted rates are not annually compounded, the effective rates are different from the quoted
rates because of the different number of compounding periods.
2. Explain how to calculate the effective rate for any period.
m
 QR 
The effective annual rate for any given compounding interval: k = 1 +  − 1 , where k =
 m 
effective annual rate, QR = quoted rate, and m = the number of compounding intervals per year.
Rates for payments that are other than annual payments require an effective period rate. The
m
 QR  f
effective period rate for payments other than annual is given as k = 1 +  − 1 , where k =
 m 
effective period rate, QR is the nominal quoted rate, m = the number of compounding period per
year and f = the frequency of payments per year.

5.7 Loan or Mortgage Arrangements

Concept review questions


1. Explain how loan and mortgage payments can be determined using annuity concepts.
Since these loans involve equal payments, at regular intervals based on one fixed interest rate
specified when the loan is taken out, the payments can be viewed as annuities.
2. What complications arise when dealing with mortgage loans in Canada?
In Canada, the interest rates are quoted semi-annually and the payments are made monthly.
Mortgages are amortized over long periods of time; but, the rates are set for terms or periods that
may be shorter than the amortization period. When the term is expired, a new rate of interest
need to be negotiated and interest rates may have increased.
3. Why is a 6 percent U.S. mortgage not the same as a 6 percent Canadian mortgage?
Interest rates are compounded semi-annually in Canada and compounded monthly in U.S.

5.8 Comprehensive Examples

Concept review questions


1. Explain how timelines can be used to break a complicated time value of money problem into
manageable components.
You can visualize the problem and break complicated cash flows into its three constituent parts
since you should develop an understanding of what is approximately the right answer.
2. Demonstrate how to solve a typical retirement problem.
There are three steps. First, calculate the present value of retirement funds in the year of
retirement. Second, calculate the cash you need to raise through investment in the year of
retirement. Third, determine the required year-end payments to give you the future value of the
amount that is calculated in the second step.
