Core Formula and Variables
Fundamental equation representing the relationship between Future Value (FV) and Present Value (PV):
Handling Multiple Cash Flows
Unequal Periodic Cash Flows
Each cash flow must be treated individually.
Process overview:
Calculate the future value or present value for each cash flow over the relevant number of periods.
Sum the individual present or future values to obtain the total cash flow stream.
Example: Auto Purchase Payment Options
Scenario:
Vehicle choice: Pay $15,500 cash now or make three payments of $8,000 immediately and $4,000 over the course of the next two years.
Given interest rate on savings account: 8%
Decision-making equation for Present Value (PV):
Present Value (PV) of Multiple Cash Flows
General equations for calculating PV:
Annuity Cash Flows
Definition
An annuity consists of a level cash flow stream at regular intervals with a finite duration.
Two Types:
Annuity Due: Payments made at the start of each period (e.g., rent, insurance). ( HAPPENS AT THE BEGINNING)
Ordinary Annuity: Payments made at the end of each period (e.g., water bill). (HAPPENS AT THE END)
Present Value of an Annuity (PVA)
Formula:
Variables:
PMT: periodic payment amount
r: periodic interest rate
t: number of periods
PVAF: Present Value Annuity Factor
Example 1: Car Purchase and Installments
Scenario:
Making 3 annual installments of $8,000 each, with a 10% interest rate
Formula Application:
Calculation of price paid for the car:
Future Value of an Annuity (FVA)
Formula:
Variables:
PMT: periodic annuity payment
r: periodic interest rate
t: number of periods
PVAF: formula
Example 2: Future Savings
Scenario:
Saving $3,000 annually for the next 4 years at an 8% interest rate.
Future Value Calculation:
Application of FVA formula:
Example 3: Retirement Savings Goal
Scenario:
Saving for 40 years with a goal of $1,000,000 at retirement and a 10% interest rate.
Calculation of Required Savings:
Rewrite FVA formula to find PMT needed:
Result:
Annuity Due
Difference:
Annuity Due cash flow starts immediately rather than at the end of the period.
Adjustment Formulas:
Example 4: Retirement Savings with Annuity Due
Scenario:
Depositing $3,000 annually for 20 years at an 8% interest rate.
Difference between making deposits at the beginning vs. end:
Calculation:
Ordinary future value:
Calculate using ordinary annuity formula.
Adjust for annuity due:
Difference in values:
Result:
Perpetuities
Definition
A perpetuity is an annuity cash flow that continues indefinitely.(never ending)
Formula for Present Value (PV):
Re-expressed to show the perpetuity payment calculated from present value and interest rate.
Example 5: Endowed Scholarship Contributions
Scenario:
Creating a scholarship offering $10,000 annually with a 5% rate of return.
Contribution Calculation:
Use formula for present value of perpetuity:
Commercial Lending and Amortization
Definition
Commercial lending is to business not individuals
Paying back loan in equal payments over time
Description of loan repayment via an annuity cash flow.
Characteristics:
Consistent periodic payments that cover interest and part of the principal.
The last payment addresses any remaining interest and principal.
Reliable cash flow for lenders; regular scheduled payments for consumers.
Example 6: Home Purchase Mortgage
Scenario:
Buying a home for $300,000, with $50,000 down, and a 30-year mortgage at a 5% annual fixed rate.
Monthly Payment Calculation:
Use the formula for Present Value (PV):
Find monthly payment :
Annual and Effective Rates
Annual Percentage Rate (APR)
Definition:
The commonly quoted annual interest rate treating the charge as if incurred once per year.
Relation between APR and periodic rates:
Variables:
APR: Annual percentage rate
R: periodic rate
M: number of compounding periods per year
Effective Annual Rate (EAR)
Definition:
The true rate of return for lenders and the actual cost for borrowers.
Formula to calculate EAR:
Alternatively:
Example 7: Interest Calculation and EAR
Scenario:
Borrowing $100,000 at an 8.5% APR, compounded monthly for 1 year.
Calculation to derive EAR:
Total interest paid after one year:
Example 8: Lottery Prize Options
Scenario:
Winning a lottery prize of $50,000,000 with options for lump-sum or annuity. Options:
Lump-sum of $13,000,000 today or 50-year annuity of $1,000,000 annually.
Decision-making based on the greater future value when invested at 5% APR.
Example 9: Business Loan Alternatives
Scenario:
Jim needs a $50,000 loan at a 9% APR with options for annual, quarterly, or monthly payments.
Calculation of periodic payments for each option, comparing total payments made annually.
Example 10: Retirement Withdrawal Savings
Scenario:
Intention to withdraw $10,000 per month for 20 years after retiring at age 65.
Required monthly deposit for account earning 8% per year, with monthly compounding.
Decision-making on deposit amount needed based on calculations to ensure sufficient funds upon retirement withdrawal.
