PASS Sessions:
Days: Monday at 11 AM, Tuesday at 8 PM
Purpose: Complement lectures and seminars.
Quiz 1: Instructions available in Content -> Assessment Resources.
Important to read instructions carefully.
Higher Education Loans Program (HELP):
Covers tuition costs without attracting interest.
Indexes to inflation using the Consumer Price Index (CPI) or wage growth.
Example: Ruth Gottesman’s donation of $1 billion to cover future student tuition at Albert Einstein College of Medicine.
Definition: FV is the sum of the future values of each cash flow.
Steps to Calculate FV:
Draw a timeline marking each cash flow and the period's end.
Calculate FV for each cash flow based on its time period.
Sum all future values.
John's Project:
Cash flows of $300, $600, $700, and $400 received over 4 years at an interest rate of 8%.
FV Calculation:
FV = 300 * (1+0.08)^3 + 600 * (1+0.08)^2 + 700 * (1+0.08)^1 + 400
Final FV = $2233.75
Definition: PV is the sum of the present values of each cash flow.
Steps to Calculate PV:
Draw timeline for cash flows.
Calculate PV for each cash flow.
Sum all present values.
Burwood Ltd's Cash Flows:
$3000, $6000, $4000, $9000 at the end of each year over 4 years at an 8% discount rate.
PV Calculation:
PV = 9000/(1+0.08)^4 + 4000/(1+0.08)^3 + 6000/(1+0.08)^2 + 3000/(1+0.08)^1
Final PV = $17712.41
Definition: A stream of cash flows spaced equally in time and of the same amount over a finite number of periods.
Types:
Ordinary Annuity: Payments at the end of each period (e.g., mortgage repayments, salaries).
Annuity Due: Payments at the beginning of each period (e.g., rent, tuition).
Calculation Formula:
FV = CF * [(1+i)^n - 1]/i
Example: John invests $1000/year for 4 years at a 6% return.
Final FV = $4374.62
Calculation:
Each cash flow earns one more period of interest.
Final FV is always higher than an ordinary annuity of the same cash flow and time length.
John invests $1000 at the beginning of each year for 4 years at a 6% return.
Final FV = $4637.09.
Ordinary Annuity PV Calculation:
PV = PMT * [1 - (1 + i)^-n] / i
Example: Payment of $5000 for 5 years at 6% rate results in PV = $21,061.82.
Calculation:
The present value is always higher than an ordinary annuity.
Investment with 5 payments of $5000 starting now at 6% rate results in PV = $22,325.53.
Definition: A perpetuity is a constant stream of cash flows that lasts indefinitely.
Present Value Calculation:
PV = CF / i
Example: If grandfather wants to receive $11,309/year, with a 9.9% rate, he needs $114,232.32 today.
Definition: Cash flows that grow at a constant rate indefinitely.
Present Value Calculation:
PV = CF1 / (i - g)
Example with CF growing at 2% and a discount rate of 10% gives a PV of $125,000.
Key Steps:
Draw timelines for cash flows.
Identify required calculations.
Use keywords for PV, FV, discount rates, and cash flow levels.
Utilize Excel or financial calculators for calculations.
Next Steps:
Review lecture slides and notes.
Attempt seminar problems.
Prepare for Quiz 1 by revising previous lectures.
