Bryce Harper reportedly signed a 10 year $300 Million deal to play for the Phillies. Aside from incentives, the deal pays him a $50 Million dollar signing bonus, $20 Million for the first 5 years, starting a year from now and $30 Million for the remaining 5 years. What is the value of this contract if his required return is 7% per year? If his options on alternative investments falls to 5% how will this impact the value of his contract?

Suppose Bryce puts the entire $50 Million signing bonus in an investment account returning 7%/ year compounded monthly? How much will that account be worth when his contract expires?

Expert Solution

Part A:

Value of Contract is PV of CFs from it.

PV of CF = CF * PVF(r%, n)

PVF(r%, n) = 1 / ( 1 + r)^n

r = Required Ret

n = Time period

Part C:

Future Value:
FV = PV (1+r)^n
Where r is Int rate per period
n - No. of periods

Particulars	Amount
Present Value	$ 5,00,00,000.00
Int Rate	0.5833%
Periods	120

Future Value = Present Value * ( 1 + r )^n
= $ 50000000 ( 1 + 0.005833) ^ 120
= $ 50000000 ( 1.005833 ^ 120)
= $ 50000000 * 2.0097
= $ 100483068.83
