Question

Using the tables in Exhibits 26-3 and 26-4, determine the present value of the following cash flows, discounted at an annual rate of 15 percent. (Round "PV factors" to 3 decimal places. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answers to the nearest whole dollar amount.)

$7,800 to be received 20 years from today.

$17,000 to be received annually for 10 years.

$10,800 to be received annually for five years, with an additional $12,000 salvage value expected at the end of the fifth year.

$29,000 to be received annually for the first three years, followed by $20,000 received annually for the next two years (total of five years in which cash is received).

Many calculators are programmed to use this formula and can compute present values when the future amount is entered 1+ jn, where p ?s the present value of $1, ,is the discount rate, and n is the number of

Explanation / Answer

Present Value Transaction a $ 476 Transaction b $            85,323 Transaction c $            42,166 Transaction d $            87,616 Working: Transaction a Present Value = Future Value x Present value of 1 payable in 20 years = $         7,800 x 0.061 = $ 476 Transaction b Present Value = Annuity x Present value of annuity of $ 1 for 10 years = $       17,000 x 5.019 = $       85,323 Transaction c Present value of annual cash flow = Annual cash flows x Present value of annuity of 1 = $       10,800 x 3.352 = $       36,202 Present value of future cash flows = Future cash flows x Present value of 1 = $       12,000 x 0.497 = $         5,964 Total $       42,166 Transaction d Year Cash flows Discount factor Present Value 1 $       29,000 0.870 $ 25,230 2 $       29,000 0.756 $ 21,924 3 $       29,000 0.658 $ 19,082 4 $       20,000 0.572 $ 11,440 5 $       20,000 0.497 $    9,940 Total $ 87,616
