Future Value of Multiple Cash Flows
Solving future value problems with multiple cash flows.
1. Draw timeline to ascertain each cash flow is placed in correct time period.
2. Calculate future value of each cash flow for its time period.
3. Add up the future values.

Suppose that you made a gift to your
university, pledging $1,000 per year for four
years and $3,000 for the fifth year, for a
total of $7,000. After making the first three
payments, you decide to pay off the final
two payments of your pledge because your
financial situation has improved. How much

You are thinking of buying a business, and your investment adviser presents you with two possibilities. Both businesses are priced at $60,000, and you have only $60,000 to invest. She has provided you with the following annual and total cash flows for each business,
along with the present value of the cash flows discounted at 10 percent:

Annuities and Perpetuities
Individual investors may make constant payments on
home or car loans, or invest fixed amount year after year saving for retirement.
Many situations exist where businesses and
individuals would face either receiving or paying constant amount for a length of period.
Level Cash Flows
Annuity: any financial contract calling for equally
spaced level cash flows over finite number of periods.
Annuities and Perpetuities
Perpetuity: contract calling for level cash flow
payments to continue forever.
Ordinary annuities: constant cash flows occurring
at end of each period.

Present Value of an Annuity
Can calculate present value of annuity same way
present value of multiple cash flows is calculated.
Instead, simplify equation 5.4 in chapter 5 to
obtain annuity factor.
Results in equation 6.1 that can be used to
calculate the annuity’s present value.

Preparing a Loan Amortization Schedule
Amortization: the way the borrowed amount
(principal) is paid down over life of loan.
Monthly loan payment is structured so each
month portion of principal is paid off; at time loan matures, it is entirely paid off.

Future Value of an Annuity
Future value annuity calculations usually involve
finding what a savings or investment activity is worth at some future point.
E.g. saving periodically for vacation, car,
house, or retirement.
We can derive the future value annuity equation
from the present value annuity equation (equation 6.1). This results in equation 6.2.

Perpetuities
A perpetuity is constant stream of cash flows that
goes on for infinite period.
In stock markets, preferred stock issues are
considered to be perpetuities, with issuer paying a constant dividend to holders.
Equation for present value of a perpetuity can be
derived from present value of an annuity equation with n tending to infinity.

Annuity Due
Annuity transformation method shows relationship
between ordinary annuity and annuity due.
Each period’s cash flow thus earns extra period
of interest compared to ordinary annuity.
Present or future value of annuity due is
always higher than that of ordinary annuity.

In addition to constant cash flow streams, one
may have to deal with cash flows that grow at a constant rate over time.
These cash-flow streams called growing annuities
or growing perpetuities.

Business may need to compute value of multiyear
product or service contracts with cash flows that increase each year at constant rate.
These are called growing annuities.

Interest rates can be quoted in financial markets
in variety of ways.
Most common quote, especially for a loan, is
annual percentage rate (APR).
APR represents simple interest accrued on loan
or investment in a single period; annualized over a year by multiplying it by appropriate number of periods in a year.
Calculating the Effective Annual Rate (EAR)
Correct way to compute annualized rate is to
reflect compounding that occurs; involves calculating effective annual rate (EAR).
Effective annual interest rate (EAR) is defined as
annual growth rate that takes compounding into account.
Calculating the Effective Annual Rate (EAR)
EAR = (1 + Quoted rate/m)
m– 1 (6.7)
m is the # of compounding periods during a year.
EAR conversion formula accounts for number of
compounding periods, thus effectively adjusts annualized interest rate for time value of money.
EAR is the true cost of borrowing and lending.

Your credit card has an APR of 12 percent (1
percent per month). What is the effective annual interest rate?
