Answer:

Tony should deposit $454.10 today so that he can have $641 in 4 years

Explanation:

first we must determine the expected value of the repairs = ($330 x 0.1) + ($460 x 0.3) + ($750 x 0.5) + ($950 x 0.1) = $641

so now we have our future value

present value = future value / (1 + 9%)⁴ = $641 / 1.41158 = $454.10

Tony should deposit $454.10 today so that he can have $641 in 4 years

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The answer is a. $25.00

Explanation:

The bondholder's cash flow in one-year time from holding a TrunkLine's bond is calculated as:

(The possibility of TrunkLine doing well x Repayment receipt in case TrunkLine doing well) + (The possibility of TrunkLine doing poorly x Repayment receipt in case TrunkLine doing poorly) = (0.5 x 35) + (0.5 x 20) = $27.50.

The current price bondholders are willing to pay for a bond is equal to the present value of a bond's cash flow in one-year time, discounted at the interest rate on the bond 10% which is calculated as below:

27.50 / (1+10%)^1 = $25

Thus, the correct choice is a. $25.00
