An investment fund promises to pay $1,000 in two years, then $3,000 in four years, and finally $5,000 in six years. If the market requires a 6% return for similar investments, what is the fair price to pay for this fund?
A | $7,811.48 |
B | $9,088.00 |
C | $6,791.08 |
D | $7,630.46 |
E | $7,369.32 |
Correct Answer is option
C
Pv of inflow is calculated in excel =
=Pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)
PRESENT VALUE OF remaining 2 years is
=PV(6%,2,0,-1000) = 890
and apply the same formula in excel for rest of the cashflow
Remaining years | cashflow | Present value |
2 | 1000 | 890.00 |
4 | 3000 | 2376.28 |
6 | 5000 | 3524.80 |
Total | 6791.08 |
