Keith Bowie is trying to determine the amount to set aside so that he will have enough money on hand in 4 years to overhaul the engine on his vintage used car. While there is some uncertainty about the cost of engine overhauls in 4 years, by conducting some research online, Keith has developed the following estimates.

Engine Overhaul Estimated Cash Outflow			Probability Assessment
$250			10	%
530			30	%
840			50	%
880			10	%

(Use the tables below.)




How much should Keith Bowie deposit today in an account earning 6%, compounded annually, so that he will have enough money on hand in 4 years to pay for the overhaul? (Round factor values to 5 decimal places, e.g. 1.25124 and final answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 458,581.)

Reegan Company owns a trade name that was purchased in an acquisition of Hamilton Company. The trade name has a book value of $1,800,000, but according to IFRS, it is assessed for impairment on an annual basis. To perform this impairment test, Reegan must estimate the fair value of the trade name. It has developed the following cash flow estimates related to the trade name based on internal information. Each cash flow estimate reflects Reegan's estimate of annual cash flows over the next 7 years. The trade name is assumed to have no residual value after the 7 years. (Assume the cash flows occur at the end of each year.)

Probability Assessment	Cash Flow Estimate
30%	$240,000
50%	365,000
20%	425,000

Reegan determines that the appropriate discount rate for this estimation is 6%. To the nearest dollar, what is the estimated fair value of the trade name?
