Time Value of Money

16. Present value (LO3) General Mills will receive $27,500 per year for the next 10 years as a
payment for a weapon he invented. If a 12 percent rate is applied, should he be willing to
sell out his future rights now for $160,000?

9-16. Solution:
Appendix D
PVA = A × PVIFA (12%, 10 periods)
PVA = $27,500 × 5.650 = $155,375
Yes, the present value of the annuity is worth less than $160,000.

20. Future value (LO2) Christy Reed has been depositing $1,500 in her savings account every
December since 2001. Her account earns 6 percent compounded annually. How much will
she have in December 2010? (Assume that a deposit is made in December of 2010. Make
sure to count the years carefully.)

9-20. Solution:
Appendix C
FVA = A × FVIFA (6%, n = 10)
FVA = $1,500 × 13.181 = $19,771.50

31. Quarterly compounding (LO5) Beverly Hills started a paper route on January 1, 2004.
Every three months, she deposits $300 in her bank account, which earns 8 percent annually
but is compounded quarterly. On December 31, 2007, she used the entire balance in her
bank account to invest in an investment at 12 percent annually. How much will she have on
December 31, 2010?

9-31. Solution:
Appendix C
FVA = A × FVIFA (2%, 16 periods)

9-1
Chapter 09: Time Value of Money

FVA = $300 × 18.639 = $5,591.70 after four years

Appendix A
FV = PV × FVIF (12%, 3 periods)
FV = $5,591.70 × 1.405
FV = $7,856.34 after three more years

32. Yield (LO4) Franklin Templeton has just invested $8,760 for her son (age one). This
money will be used for his son’s education 17 years from now. He calculates that he will
need $60,000 by the time the boy goes to school. What rate of return will Mr. Templeton
need in order to achieve this goal?

33. Yield with interpolation (LO4) On January 1, 2008, Mr. Dow bought 100 shares of stock
at $12 per share. On December 31, 2010, he sold the stock for $18 per share. What is his
annual rate of return? Interpolate to find the answer.

9-33. Solution:

Appendix B

Return is between 14%-15% for 3 years

14% + (.008/.017) (1%)

14% + .471 (1%)
14.47%

38. Deferred annuity (LO3) Rusty Steele will receive the following payments at the end of
the next three years: $4,000, $7,000, and $9,000. Then from the end of the fourth year
through the end of the tenth year, he will receive an annuity of $10,000. At a discount rate
of 10 percent, what is the present value of all future benefits?

9-38. Solution:
First find the present value of the first three payments.

PV = FV × PVIF (Appendix B) i = 10%

1) $4,000 × .909 = $3,636

2) 7,000 × .826 = 5,782
3) 9,000 × .751 = 6,759
$16,177

Then find the present value of the deferred annuity.

Appendix D will give a factor for a seven period annuity (fourth

year through the tenth year) at a discount rate of 10 percent. The
value of the annuity at the beginning of the fourth year is:

This value at the beginning of year four (end of year three) must
now be discounted back for three years to get the present value of
the deferred annuity. Use Appendix B.

Finally, find the total present value of all future payments.

Present value of first three payments $16,177

Present value of the deferred annuity 36,559
$52,736

OR

Take the PVIFA for 10 years at 10% and subtract the PVIFA for 3
years at 10% to end up with the 7 year deferred annuity.

PVIFA = 6.145 (10 years at 10%)

PVIFA = 2.487 ( 3 years at 10%)
PVIFA = 3.658 (years 4 through 10 years at 10%)

$10,000 × 3.658 = $36,580

Present value of first three payments $16,177
