1. What is the present value of the following series of cash flows discounted at 12 percent: $40,000 now; $50,000 at the end of the first year; $0 at the end of year the second year; $60,000 at the end of the third year; and $70,000 at the end of the fourth year?
2. Assume an income-producing property is priced at $5,000 and has the following income stream (year 1, $1,000; year 2, -$2,000; year 3, $3,000; and year 4, $3,000). Would an investor with a required rate of return of 15 percent be wise to invest at the current price?
3. Calculate the present value of the income stream given below assuming discount rates of 8 percent and 20 percent.
Year Income
1 $3,000
2 $4,000
3 $6,000
4 $1,000
4. Calculate the IRR and NPV for the following investment opportunities. Assume a 16 percent discount rate for the NPV calculations:
Year Project 1 Cash Flow Project 2 Cash Flow
0 -$10,000 -$10,000
1 1,000 1,000
2 2,000 12,000
3 12,000 1,800

To Press
Enter interest rate per cash flow period 12 I/Y
Enter 1st cash flow 50000 +/- FV
Enter 1st cash flow period 1 N
Compute PV of 1st cash flow CPT PV 44,642.86
Store in M1 STO 1
Enter 2nd cash flow 0 +/- FV
Enter 2nd cash flow period 2 N
Compute PV of 2nd cash flow CPT PV 0
Sum to memory STO + 1
Enter 3rd cash flow 60000 +/- FV
Enter 3rd cash flow period 3 N
Compute PV of 3rd cash flow CPT PV 42,706.81
Sum to memory STO + 1
Enter 4th cash flow 70000 +/- FV
Enter 4th cash flow period 4 N
Compute PV of 4th cash flow CPT PV 44,486.27
Sum to memory STO + 1
Recall total PV RCL 1
Add 40,000 now + 40000 = 171,835.94
