Consider the following cash flows:
Year | Cash Flow | |||
2 | $ | 22,000 | ||
3 | 40,000 | |||
5 | 58,000 | |||
Assume an interest rate of 8.8 percent per year.
If today is Year 0, what is the future value of the cash flows five
years from now? (Do not round intermediate calculations and
round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Future value ?
If today is Year 0, what is the future value of the cash flows ten
years from now? (Do not round intermediate calculations and
round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Future value ?
1.The question is solved by first calculating the present value.
Net present value is solved using a financial calculator. The steps to solve on the financial calculator:
Net Present value of cash flows at 8.8% interest rate is $87,686.85.
Enter the below in a financial calculator to compute the future value:
PV= -87,686.85.
N= 5
I/Y= 8.8
Press the CPT key and FV to compute the future value.
The value obtained is 133,683.85.
Therefore, the future value of the cash flow is $133,683.85.
2.The question is solved by first calculating the present value.
Net present value is solved using a financial calculator. The steps to solve on the financial calculator:
Net Present value of cash flows at 8.8% interest rate is $87,686.85.
Enter the below in a financial calculator to compute the future value:
PV= -87,686.85.
N= 10
I/Y= 8.8
Press the CPT key and FV to compute the future value.
The value obtained is 203,809.03.
Therefore, the future value of the cash flow is $203,809.03.
