In the time before the development of the various social media platforms, the classical mass medias like Television, Radio and Newspapers were great tools to reach a huge audience. But these were tipically one way channels. You could reach out to people via these channels...

Hey wadup! What do they TRY to teach you in business school but HARDLY explain well? Whenever we read our textbooks in business school, we often get very confused about all these different concepts which look scary and complicated. More often than not, these scary concepts are found in the fields of Accounting, Financial Management, and Quantitative Analysis. Here you will learn to lose that fear, and realize that the “scaryness” was only in the way it was presented to you in the past; and that there’s really nothing to be afraid of!

...value of pay off is considered. Questions 9, 10, and 11 give Mr. Smith 3 options: * Option 1: Harvest all crop trees now and receive $8,160 * Option 2: Let the forest grow without thinning, then harvest all crop trees 60 years from now and receive $537,962.01 at harvesting, equivalent to $28,800.08 now * Option 3: Thin and manage the forest, then harvest all crop trees 50 years from now and receive $670,033.56 at harvesting, equivalent to $58,429.42 now Based on the present value of the money received at harvesting, it is highly recommended that Mr. Smith should choose option 3. Furthermore, provided Mr. Smith decides to thin and manage his forest, in case he needs money soon to use for other purposes, he can harvest all of his crop trees at the 40th year to receive $410,608.68 at harvesting, equivalent to $58,325.19 at present, instead of waiting for 10 more years. This is because the present value of money received at the 40th year is just a little ($104.23) less than that of money received at the 50th year. Section 2 – Analysis Question 1 In order to choose the best offer, the amount of payment in each offer is discounted to present at the discount rate of 10%. This is just a basic discounting problem, using the formula PV=FV(1+r)t In this formula, FV is the amount of payment, r is the discount rate of 10%, t is the number of years from now in each offer. Table 1 in the appendix summarizes the present value of payment in each offer. It also shows that offer...

Define an annuity. A series of equal cash flows made or received at regular time intervals. 4. Define an ordinary annuity. A series of payments made or received at the end of each period. 5. Define an annuity due. An annuity with n payments, where the first payment is made at time t = 0, and the last payment is made at time t = n - 1. 6. In the future value annuity table at any interest rate for 1 year, why is the future value interest factor of this annuity equal to 1.00? In a future value annuity table at any interest rate for 1 year, the future value interest factor of the annuity is equal to 1.00 because no interest has been acquired. 7. What is the relationship between the present value of single dollar payment formula and the present value of an ordinary annuity formula for the same number of years and same discount rate?

How much must you invest each year if you want to have $50,000 at the end of the 20 years? Solution: FV PMT (100, 10%,20) = 5727.50 after 20 years you will have $5,727.50 PMT FV (50000,10%,20) = 872.98 ou must invest, at the end of each year for 20 years, $872.98 3.
