Summative Test Perpetuity and Capitalization
Summative Test Perpetuity and Capitalization
1. Assuming that Janell holds a perpetual bond that generates an annual payment of $500
each year. He believes that the borrower is creditworthy and that an 8% interest rate will
be suitable for this bond. Compute the PV for this perpetuity.
2. Matthew a businessman, invested in a company that will pay him a dividend of $8,000
per share annually. He expects a 6% growth rate in the annual payments. Given the
possible risks, Jacob expects a valuation of a 16% discount rate of 16%. Calculate the
value of a share under the above assumptions.
Given: Periodic Payment or Payment per time period (C) = ₱15,000.00 (semi-annually
Interest rate per time period (r) = 8% = 0.08 (quarterly)
Required: Present value of a perpetuity (PV)
Solution/Answer:
(1 + r/4)⁴ = (1 + r)²
(1 + 0.08/4)⁴ = (1 + r)²
(1 + 0.08/4)² = (1 + r)
1 + r = 1.0404
r = 1.0404 – 1
r = 0.0404
4. An item is purchased for P100,000. Annual cost is P18,000. Using interest rate of 8%,
what is the capitalized cost of perpetual service?
Solution/Answer:
K = FC + OM/i
K = ₱100,000.00 + ₱18,000.00/0.08
K = ₱100,000.00 + ₱225,000.00
K = ₱325,000.00
5. A corporation uses a type of motor which costs P5,000 with 2 life years and final salvage
value of P800. How much could the corporation afford to pay for another type of motor
of the same purpose whose life is 3 years a with a final salvage value of P1,000. Money is
worth 4%.
Given:
First type of motor:
First Cost (FC1)= ₱5,000.00
Salvage Value (SV1) = ₱800.00
Interest Rate per Conversion Period (i) = 4% = 0.04
n=2
Let:
AC1 = annual cost of the first type of motor
AC2 = annual cost of the second type of motor
AC1 = ₱2,258.82
AC1 = AC2
6. A motorcycle costs P50,000 and has an expected life of 10 years. The salvage value is
estimated to be P2,000 and annual operating cost is estimated at P1,000. What is the
appropriate rate of return on the investment if the annual revenue is P10,000?
7. At 6%, find the capitalized cost of a bridge whose cost is P250M and life is 20 years, if
the bridge must be partially rebuilt at a cost of P100M at the end of each 20 years.
8. A new broiler was installed by a textile plant at a total cost of P300,000 and projected to
have a useful life of 15 years. At the end of its useful life, it is estimated to have a salvage
value of P30,000. Determine its capitalized cost if interest is 18% compounded annually.
K = ₱300,000.00 + ₱24,604.17377
K = ₱324,604.17
9. A man planned of building a house. The cost of construction is P500,000 while annual
maintenance cost is estimated at P10,000. If the interest rate is 6%, what is the capitalized
cost of the house?
Solution/Answer:
K = FC + OM/i
K = ₱500,000.00 + ₱10,000.00/0.06
K = ₱500,000.00 + ₱166,666.6667
K = ₱666,666.67
