What is the maximum amount a firm should pay for a project that will return $15,000 annually for 5 years if the opportunity cost
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

The firm should pay $46907.57 for the given project.

Explanation:

Given information:

Return = $15000 annually

Time = 5 years

Opportunity cost = 18%

The formula for payment is

PV=R(\frac{1}{OC}-\frac{1}{OC(1+OC)^t})

where, R is return, OC is opportunity cost, t is time in years.

Substitute R=15000, t=5 and OC=0.18 in the above formula.

PV=15000(\frac{1}{0.18}-\frac{1}{0.18(1+0.18)^5})

PV=46907.5653141

PV\approx 46907.57

Therefore the firm should pay $46907.57 for the given project.

Because your mother is about to retire, she wants to buy an annuity that will provide her with $75,000 of income a year for 20 y
siniylev [52]

The calculated present value of the annuity is $915,166.70.

Explanation and Solution:

Annuity is a collection of fixed payments made or earned either at the close or at the beginning of any term such that a significant initial payment or receipt may be turned into a set of comparatively minor payments or receipts. An annuity that lasts indefinitely is called perpetuity.

The formula for the present value of the annuity is given by:

P = \frac{1- (1+i)^{-n} }{i}  * R

Where;

R = annual payment = $75,000

i = interest rate = 5.25%

P = Present value of annuity

n = number of years = 20 years

P = \frac{1- (1+5.25)^{-20} }{5.25}  * 75,000

P = $915,166.70
