Lump sums
Example: You need $100000 in 18 years for your child's university fees. You will earn 8 percent
per year. How much do you need to invest as a lump sum today to achieve this?
$100000/ (1+0.08)^18
o $25024
Leverage - Debt
Example 1:
o No mortgage, house price - $1000000, no mortgage, equity = $1000000
House price increases by 5 percent and equity increases, therefore profit
on selling the house increases by $50000
Example 2:
House price - $1000000, mortgage $900000, equity = $100000
House price increase by 50 percent and equity increases, therefore profit
on selling the house increases by $50000
Example: You decide to save $12000 per year for 40 years. You expect to earn 8 percent per
year. What amount will you have in 40 years?
FV = $12000 * (1+0.08)^40 - 1/ 0.08
FV = $3108678 → assume inflation is 3%
PV = 3108678/(1.03)^40 = 952986
Example: You lease a car for $100000 at a lease rate of 3% for 5 years. Payments are due at the
beginning of the month. What are your payments?
$100000, r = 0.03/12, n = 5 * 12 = 60
$100000 = amount * 55.79149
o Amount = $1792
Perpetuity
Equal cashflow for infinity
o PV = amount/r
Example: You receive $100/year forever. You invest at 10 percent/per year. What is the value of
perpetuity?
PV = 100/0.1 = $1000
Credit Ratings
- Default Risk
o Issuer of bond cannot repay it
- Interest Rate Risk
o If interest rate increases unexpectedly then bond price will fall
o Lose money if you sell bond
- AAA – Countries (Microsoft & J&J)
- AA – Countries/provinces
- A – Canadian Banks
- BBB – Investment Goods (Pension funds can invest in AAA, AA, A)
- BB – Not Investment Goods (Pension funds must sell bonds)
o Mass sales
o Price Falls
- B – High Yield (Junk Bonds)
- C – Default
- D – Bankrupt
o Had financial problems that caused a downgrade (Includes BB, B, C, D)
Example: Net Income
Bond Valuation
- Par
o Trades at face value ($1000)
o Coupon Rate = Current Market price
Interest is paid by bond
- Premium
o Trades at a price > Face value
Coupon Rate > Current market rate
- Discount
o Trades at a price < Face value
Market Price
Coupon Rate < Current market rate
Example: You have a machine that will produce the following cashflows
Year 1 + $500000
Year 2 + $525000
Year 3 + $475000
Year 4 + $450000
- The different years are the FV
- The amount is individual PV of lump sums
If the inflation rate is 3%, what is the present value of these cash flows?
PV = FV/(1+n)^n
PV = $500000/(1+0.03) ^1 + $525000/ (1 + 0.03) ^2 + ….
PV = $1819811
Bonds Overview
- Debt and Equity (Costs)
o Pros of debt
Does not dilute ownership
Debt is cheaper than equity
Tax deductible
o Cons of Debt
Bankruptcy Risk
- Process to issue
