Finance: find present value

jeudi 27 février 2014

Cash flow of 100 000. Interest rate = 8%, inflation = 3%. Cash flow will keep pace with any increase in prices. Find present value for first three years.



Answer:



Because it says "cash flow will keep pace with increase in prices", don't you not divide by the inflation rate, but instead multiply it by the principal?



Year 1:

100 000/(1.08)



Year 2:

(100 000*1.03)/(1.08^2)



Year 3:

(103 000*1.03)/(1.08^2)
