Problem 7.4
Assume that you are going to buy a new car for $25,000.You will be able to make a down payment of
$3,000.The remaining $22,000 will be financed by the dwaler.The dealer computes your monthlypayment
to be $547.47 for48 months of financing. What is the dealer's annual rate of return on this car loan?
$22,000=$547.47(P/A,I,48)
i=0.75%
r=0.75*12=9%
i=(1+i)^-1
i=(1+0.0075)^12 - 1=9.38% per year
Problem 7.11
Consider four projects with the following sequences of cash flows
Net Cash Flow
N Project A ProjectB ProjectC ProjectD
0 ($25,000) ($23,000) $43,233 ($56,600)
1 $12,000 $32,000 ($18,000) ($2,500)
2 $23,000 $32,000 ($18,000) ($6,459)
3 $34,000 ($25,000) ($18,000) $88,345
a) Identify all the simple investments.
Simple investment: Project A,D project C Simple borrowing.
b) Identify all the nonsimple investments
Non- simple investment: Project B
c) Comare the i* for each project using Exel.
Project A:
PW(I)=-$25,000+$12,000(P/F,I,1)+$$23,000(P/F,I,2)+$34,000(P/F,I,3)=0
i^=59.32%
ProjectB:
PW(I)=$23,000+$32,000(P/A,I,2)- $25,000(P/F,I,3)=0
I^=82.72%
Project C:
PW(I)=$43,233-$18,000(P/A,I,3)=0
I^=12% A=borrowing rate of return
Project D:
PW(I)= - $56,500 - $2,500(P/F,I,1) - $6,459(P/F,I,2)+$88,345(P/F,I,3)=0
I^=11.37%
d) Which projet has no rate of return?
The answer could be project C on the grounds that its cash flowrepresent a loan not an investment.
Problem 7.20
Consider the following project’s cash flows:
N net cash flow
0 ($3,000)
1 $800
2 $900
3 x
Assume that the project's IRR is 10%
(A) find the value of X
PW(I)=P/F,I,N)
PW(10%)= - $3,000+ $800(P/F,10%,1) + $9,000(P/F,10%,2)+ X (P/F,10%,3)=0
X= $2,035
(B) Is this porject acceptable at MARR=8%?
Since IRR=8%, the project is acceptable.
