Chapter 5: Time Value of Money

Multiple Choice Questions

1 What is the total amount accumulated after three years if someone invests $1,000 today with a simple annual interest rate of 5 percent? With a compound annual interest rate of 5 percent?

Simple interest rate: $1,000 + ($1,000)(5%)(3) = $1,150

Compound interest rate: $1,000(1.05)3 = $1,158

2 Which of the following has the largest future value if $1,000 is invested today?

A Five years with a simple annual interest rate of 10 percent

B 10 years with a simple annual interest rate of 8 percent

C Eight years with a compound annual interest rate of 8 percent

D Eight years with a compound annual interest rate of 7 percent

Level of difficulty: Easy

Therefore, C is the largest

Interest rates in the following questions are compound rates unless otherwise stated

3 Suppose an investor wants to have $10 million to retire 45 years from now How much would she have to invest today with an annual rate of return equal to 15 percent?

Trang 2

4 Which of the following is false?

A The longer the time period, the smaller the present value, given a $100 future value and

holding the interest rate constant

B The greater the interest rate, the greater the present value, given a $100 future value and holding the time period constant

C A future dollar is always less valuable than a dollar today if interest rates are positive

D The discount factor is the reciprocal of the compound factor

Level of difficulty: Medium

Solution: B The greater the interest rate, the smaller the present value, given a $100 future value and holding time period constant

5 Maggie deposits $10,000 today and is promised a return of $17,000 in eight years What is the implied annual rate of return?

Trang 3

7 Which of the following concepts is incorrect?

A An ordinary annuity has payments at the end of each year

B An annuity due has payments at the beginning of each year

C A perpetuity is considered a perpetual annuity

D An ordinary annuity has a greater PV than an annuity due, if they both have the same periodic payments, discount rate and time period

Level of difficulty: Medium

Solution: D The annuity due has a greater PV because it pays one year earlier than ordinary

annuity

8 Jan plans to invest an equal amount of $2,000 in an equity fund every year-end beginning this year The expected annual return on the fund is 15 percent She plans to invest for 20 years How much could she expect to have at the end of 20 years?

expected annual rate of return equal to 12 percent?

A How much interest will he owe his parents after one year?

B How much will he owe, in total, after three years?

Topic: Simple Interest

Level of difficulty: Easy

Solution:

A In one year you will own P x k = $1500 x 6% = $90 of interest

B After three years, the total (principal and interest) owing will be: P + (n x P x k) = $1500 + (3 x $1500 x 6%) = $1770

12 Your sister has been forced to borrow money to pay her tuition this year If she makes annual payments on the loan at year end for the next three years, and the loan is for $2,500 at a simple interest rate of 6 percent, how much will she pay each year?

Topic: Simple Interest

Level of difficulty: Easy

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 = $2500 x 6% = $150 Unfortunately, these payments never reduce the principal owing, so the loan will never be paid off!

13 Khalil’s summer job has given him $1,200 more than he needs for tuition this year The local bank pays simple interest at a rate of 0.5 percent per month How much interest will he earn

in one year?

Topic: Simple Interest

Level of difficulty: Easy

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 $1200 x 0.5%) = $72

14 A new Internet bank pays compound interest of 0.5 percent per month on deposits How much interest will Khalil’s summer savings of $1,200 earn in one year with this online bank account?

Topic: Compound Interest

Level of difficulty: Easy

Solution:

The payment of compound interest means that we must compound (or find the future value)

of the amount invested (the present value):

A FV1year $20,000(10.105)1$22,100.00 You are ($22,100 – $22,000) = $100 better off after one year

Solution:

Solve for the interest rate (or internal rate of return) on an ordinary annuity This is quite

difficult to do algebraically, but is easily handled with a financial calculator (TI BAII Plus)

Note that we must use a negative sign for the annual payment (savings) or the future value amount, but not both

32 Shortly after John was born, his parents began to put money in a savings account to pay for his post-secondary education They save $1,000 each year, and earn a return of 9 percent per year However, the interest income is taxed each year at a rate of 30 percent How much will John’s account be worth after 17 years?

33 John’s parents used a regular savings account to save for his post-secondary education Based

on the amount accumulated (from your answer in Problem 320), how much can John withdraw from the account at the beginning of each year for his four years at university? The account will continue to earn 9 percent per year, but interest income is taxed at a rate of 30 percent

Solution:

As in Problem 32, k9%(10.30)6.3% because of taxation John’s withdrawals at the beginning of each year are essentially “payments” on an annuity due:

Topic: Effective Interest Rates Level of difficulty: Medium Solution:

The two loans have the same principal amount; one requires monthly payments, the other annual, so they cannot be compared on that basis We need an effective rate for the same period of time for comparison In Problem 43, the effective annual rate was 12% For Problem 44, the effective annual rate is:
