Question

Uneven Cash Flow Stream

Find the present values of the following cash flow streams. The appropriate interest rate is 15%. Round your answers to the nearest cent. (Hint: It is fairly easy to work this problem dealing with the individual cash flows. However, if you have a financial calculator, read the section of the manual that describes how to enter cash flows such as the ones in this problem. This will take a little time, but the investment will pay huge dividends throughout the course. Note that, when working with the calculator's cash flow register, you must enter CF0 = 0. Note also that it is quite easy to work the problem with Excel, using procedures described in the Chapter 4 Tool Kit.)

Year Cash Stream A Cash Stream B 1 $100 $300 2 400 400 3 400 400 4 400 400 5 300 100

Explanation / Answer

300*.4972=149.16

Stream A=1030.32

the value of each cash flow stream at a 0% interest rate

Stream A=1600

100 *0.4972=49.72

Stream B=1104.88

Stream B=1600

Year Cash Stream A Cash Stream B Pv Factor 1 $100*0.870=87 $300*0.870=261 2 400*0.7561=302.44 400*0.7561=302.44 3 400*.6575=263                   400*0.6575=263 4 400*.5718=228.72 400*0.5718=228.72 5

300*.4972=149.16

Stream A=1030.32

the value of each cash flow stream at a 0% interest rate

Stream A=1600

100 *0.4972=49.72

Stream B=1104.88

Stream B=1600
