CHAPTER 2 How to Calculate Present Values Answers to Problem Sets 1. If the discount factor is .507‚ then .507 x 1.126 = $1. Est time: 01-05 2. DF x 139 = 125. Therefore‚ DF =125/139 = .899. Est time: 01-05 3. PV = 374/(1.09)9 = 172.20. Est time: 01-05 4. PV = 432/1.15 + 137/(1.152) + 797/(1.153) = 376 + 104 + 524 = $1‚003. Est time: 01-05 5. FV = 100 x 1.158 = $305.90. Est time: 01-05 6. NPV = −1‚548 + 138/.09 = −14.67 (cost today plus the present value of the perpetuity)
