An FI has purchased a $207 million cap of 9 percent at a premium
of 0.60 percent of face value. A $207 million floor of 4.7 percent
is also available at a premium of .65 percent of face value.
a. If interest rates rise to 10 percent, what is
the amount received by the FI? What are the net savings after
deducting the premium?
b. If the FI also purchases a floor, what are the
net savings if interest rates rise to 11 percent? What are the net
savings if interest rates fall to 3.7 percent? (Negative
amounts should be indicated by a minus sign.)
c. If, instead, the FI sells (writes) the floor,
what are the net savings if interest rates rise to 11 percent? What
if they fall to 3.7 percent? (Negative amounts should be
indicated by a minus sign.)

A $1,000 face value has a 5% annual coupon rate. The next coupon is due in one year and the bond matures in 26 years. The current YTM on the bond is 4.2%. What is the dollar value of the price change if the bond's YTM increases to 6.3%? Round to the nearest cent. [Hint: 1) If the price drops, the change is a negative number. 2) Do not compute duration. You can calculate the precise impact of a yield change on the bond's price by comparing the prices under the two scenarios.]

H. Cochran, Inc., is considering a new three-year expansion project that requires an initial fixed asset investment of $2,190,000. The fixed asset falls into the three-year MACRS class (MACRS Table). The project is estimated to generate $2,180,000 in annual sales, with costs of $1,170,000. The project requires an initial investment in net working capital of $153,000, and the fixed asset will have a market value of $178,000 at the end of the project. Assume that the tax rate is 35 percent and the required return on the project is 12 percent.
What is the net cash flow of the project each year? (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Enter your answers in dollars, not millions of dollars, e.g., 1,234,567. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Your firm is contemplating the purchase of a new $515,000 computer-based order entry system. The system will be depreciated straight-line to zero over its five-year life. It will be worth $53,000 at the end of that time. You will be able to reduce working capital by $78,000 (this is a one-time reduction). The tax rate is 21 percent and the required return on the project is 9 percent. If the pretax cost savings are $150,000 per year, what is the NPV of this project?

FUTURE VALUE OF AN ORDINARY ANNUITY
FVOA= A(FVAF) PVOA=(PVAF)
We will only be concerned with ordinary annuities,
where the same payments are made or received at the end of each
time period.
Just remember payments can be made at the beginning of the period, called annuities due, the calculation used is slightly different .
Hint: This is a future value of an ordinary annuity problem. You will solve for “A”
Hint - This is then a future value of an ordinary annuity and you are solving for “A”.
