Chris Bowie is trying to determine the amount to set aside so that he will have enough money on hand in 5 years to overhaul the

engine on his vintage used car. While there is some uncertainty about the cost of engine overhauls in 5 years, by conducting some research online, Chris has developed the following estimates.
Engine Overhaul Estimated Cash Outflow Probability Assessment
$300 10%
470 30%
740 50%
880 10%

How much รhould Chris Bowie deposit today in an account earning 6%, compounded annually, so that he will have enough money on hand in 3 years to pay for the overhaul?

Answer:

$515.53

Explanation:

CALCULATION OF THE ESTIMATED CASH OUTFLOW EXPENSES FOR ENGINE OVERHAUL

Engine Overhaul                          Probability                 Estimated Cash

estimated cash outflow(X)                 (Y)                           flow ( X * Y)

$370                                             10%                                $37

$470                                             30%                               $141

$720                                             50%                               $360

<u>$760                                             10%                                $76</u>

<u>$2320                                                                                 $614</u>

Present Value Factor, PVF, of 3 years and 6% = 0.839619(from the table)

hence, value = $614 x 0.839619

                     = $515.53

Amount Deposited = $516 (approx)

According to Kenneth Blanchard and Norman Vincent Peale, authors of The Power of Ethical  Management, there are three questions you should ask yourself whenever you are faced with an  ethical dilemma:

1. Is it legal? Will I be violating civil law or company policy? Will I be violating the student code  of conduct?  

2. Is it balanced? Is it fair to all parties concerned both in the short-term as well as the longterm?  Does it promote win-win relationships?

<u>3. How will it make me feel about myself? Will it make me proud? Would I feel good if my  decision was published in the newspaper? Would I feel good if my family knew about it? </u>
