$1,000,000 in one year. You will receive payments for 30 years, which will
increase 5 percent per year. If the appropriate discount rate is 8 percent, what is
the present value of your winnings?
38. Growing Annuity [LO1] Your job pays you only once a year for all the work you did
over the previous 12 months. Today, December 31, you just received your salary of
$50,000 and you plan to spend all of it. Howevet you want to start saving for
rethement beginning next year. You have decided that one year from today you will
begin depositing 5 percent ofyour annual salary in an account that will earn 11 percent
per year. Your salary will increase at 4 percent per year throughout your career. How
much money will you have on the date of your retirement 40 years from today?
39. Present Value and Interest Rates [LOIJ What is the relationship between the
value of an annuity and the level of interest rates? Suppose you just bought a
l5-year annuity of $9,000 per year at the current interest rate of 10 percent per year.
What happens to the value of your investment if interest rates suddenly drop to
5 percent? What if interest rates suddenly rise to l5 percent?
40. Calculating the Number of Payments [LO2] You're prepared to make monthly
payments of $340, beginning at the end of this month, into an account that pays

payment have to be for you to keep your monthly payments at $1,150?

stream is $6,550 when discounted at l0 percent annually. What is the value of the
missing cash flow?
':Calculating Present Values [LOl] You just won the TVM Lottery. You will
receive $l milliontoday plus another 10 annual payments that increase by
,000 per year. Thus, in one year, you receive $1.5 million. In two years you
get $2 million, and so on. If the appropriate interest rate is 9 percent, what is the
value of your winnings?
versus APR [LO4] You have just purchased a new warehouse. To finance i2

All salaries are to be paid in lump sums. The player has asked you as his agent to
renegotiate the terms. He wants a $9 million signing bonus payable today and a
value increase of $1,400,fi)0. He also wants an equal salary paid every
trhree months, with the first paycheck three months from now. If the interest rate is
.5 percent compounded daily, what is the amount of bis quarterly check? Assume
days in a year.
lnterest Loans [LOal This question illustrates what is known as
interest.Imagine you are discussing a loan with a somewhat unscrupulous
. You want to borrow $25,000 for one year. The interest rate is 15 percent.
and the lender agree that the interest on the loan will be .15 X $25,000 =
750. So the lender deducts this interest amount from the loan up front and gives
r'$21,250. ln this case, we say that the discount is $3,750. What's wrong here?

After the child's sixth birthday, no more payments are made. When the child
ieaches'age 65, he or she receives $500,000. If the relevant interest rate is
12 percent for the first six years and 8 percent for all subsequent years, is the
policy worth buying?
