Present and Future
Values of Single Cash
Flows for Different
Periods
Find the following values, using the equations, and then work the problems using a
financial calculator to check your answers. Disregard rounding differences. (Hint:
If you are using a financial calculator, you can enter the known values and then
press the appropriate key to find the unknown variable. Then, without clearing
the TVM register, you can "override" the variable that changes by simply entering
a new value for it and then pressing the key for the unknown variable to obtain
the second answer. This procedure can be used in parts b and d, and in
many other situations, to see how changes in input variables affect the output
variable.)
a. An initial $500 compounded for 1 year at 6%
b. An initial $500 compounded for 2 years at 6%
c. The present value of $500 due in 1 year at a discount rate of 6%
d. The present value of $500 due in 2 years at a discount rate of 6%
Future Value of an
Annuity
Find the future value of the following annuities. The first payment in these annuities
is made at the end of Year 1, so they are ordinary annuities. (Notes: See the Hint to
Problem 4-9. Also, note that you can leave values in the TVM register, switch to Begin
Mode, press FV, and find the FV of the annuity due.)
a. $400 per year for 10 years at 10%
b. $200 per year for 5 years at 5%
c. $400 per year for 5 years at 0%
d. Now rework parts a, b, and c assuming that payments are made at the beginning
of each year; that is, they are annuities due.
