KIX2002: Tutorial 2 - Time Value Money Part 1

1) What is the future equivalent of RM500 invested at 7% simple interest per year for 4.5 years?

2) How much should company ABC be willing to put aside some money to buy an equipment that will
cost the company RM65, 000 three years from now, if the interest rate is 10% per year?

3) A paper box company is planning to set aside RM250, 000 now for possibly replacing the motor for
one of the machine. If the replacement is not needed for 9 years, how much will the company have in
account if it interest at a rate of 8% a year?

4) You just inherited RM120, 000. How much you should you deposit in an account earning 3% interest
per year if you’d like to have RM200, 000 in the account in 20 years.

5) Firm XYZ is considering the purchase of the building it currently leases. Since the lease is already paid
for this year, the next annual lease payment of $30,000 isn’t due until the end of this year. If the
company purchases the building now for $170,000 with no money down, how long will it be before the
company recovers its investment at an interest rate of 12% per year?

6) Find the numerical value of the following factors by (a) Interpolation and; b) using the appropriate
formula

i) (F/P, 17%, 20)

ii) (P/A, 21%, 8)

Solutions

1) I = (P)(N)(i)

= 500 x 4.5 x 0.08

= RM180

So the future equivalence will be RM500 + RM180 = RM680

2) P = 65,000 (P/F, 10%, 3)

= 65,000 (0.7513)

= RM48,834.5
3) F = 250,000(F/P, 8%, 9)

= 250,000(1.9926)

= RM498,150

4) P = 200,000(P/F, 3%, 20)

= 200,000 (0.5537)

= RM110,740

5) 170,000 = 30,000(P/A, 12%, n)

(P/A, 12%, n) = 5.6667

(1+𝑖)𝑁 −1
[ 𝑖(1+𝑖)𝑁
]= 5.6667 (solve the mathematics or alternatively use the interpolation (MUCH EASIER)

N = 10.05 years

6)

1a) Interpolate between i = 16% and i= 18%

16 = 19.4608

17 = ?

18 = 27.3930
1 𝑐
2
= 27.3930−19.4608

C = 3.9661

(F/P, 17%, 20) = 19.4608 + 3.9661

= 23.4269

1b) (F/P, 17%, 20) = (1+0.17)20

= 23.1056
2a) Interpolate between i = 20% and i = 22%

20 = 3.8372

21 = ?

22 = 3.6193
1 𝑐
2
= 3.8372−3.6193

C = 0.1090

(P/A, 21%, 8) = 3.8372 – 1.1090

= 3.7282

(1+0.21)8 −1
2b) (P/A, 21%, 8) = [ ]
0.21(1+0.21)8

(1.21)8 −1
= [0.21(1.21)8]

= 3.73
