1. You won the lottery and will receive $50,000 per yr for 20 yrs. Assume 4% interest used to evaluate annuity and you receive payment at the beginning of the yr
a. what is the PV of the lottery
PVoa = PMT [(1 - (1 / (1 + i)^n)) / i]
Where:
PVoa = Present Value of an Ordinary Annuity
PMT = Amount of each payment
i = Discount Rate Per Period
n = Number of Periods
PVoa = PMT [(1 - (1 / (1 + i)^n)) / i]
= 50,000 [1-(1/1 + 0.04)^20))/0.04]
= 50,000 [(1- 1/2.1911)/0.04]
= 50,000 [(1-0.4564)/0.04]
= 50,000 [0.54361/0.04]
= 50,000 * 13.5903
= $ 679,515
b. how much interest was earned on the PV to make $50,000 a year payment.
FVoa = PMT [((1 + i)^n - 1) / i]
Where:
FVoa = Future Value of an Ordinary Annuity
PMT = Amount of each payment
i = Interest Rate Per Period
n = Number of Periods
FVoa = PMT [((1 + i)^n - 1) / i]
= 50,000 [((1 + 0.04)^20 - 1) / 0.04]
= 50,000 [((2.191123 - 1)/0.04]
= 50,000 * 29.778
=$ 1,488,903.929
In order to know the interest earned on the ...
