    WORKSHEET #2: TIME VALUE OF MONEY 1: INTRODUCING THE FACTORS

    Name: King, Ginger Ashley M.

    For each of the following problems, (a) draw the cash flow diagram; (b) present clean and clear manual solutions to the
    problem; (c) highlight the final answer (only the final answer as required by the problem) by enclosing it within a box.

    1. The Department of Traffic Security of a city is considering the purchase of a new drone for aerial surveillance of traffic on
    its most congested streets. A similar purchase 5 years ago cost $1,500,000. At an interest rate of 15% per year, what is
    the equivalent value today?
    2. How much money should a bank be willing to loan a real estate developer who will repay the loan by selling seven
    lakefront lots at $100,000 each 3 years from now? Assume the bank’s interest rate is 5% per year.
    3. How much could BTU Oil and Gas Fracking afford to spend on new equipment each year for the next 5 years if it expects
    a profit of $60 million 5 years from now? Assume the company’s MARR is 18% per year.
    4. Atlas Long-Haul Transportation is considering installing Valutemp temperature loggers in all of its refrigerated trucks for
    monitoring temperatures during transit. If the systems will reduce insurance claims by $100,000 in each of the next 4
    years, how much should the company be willing to spend now if it uses an interest rate of 10% per year?
    5. A cash flow sequence starts in year 1 at $6,000 and decreases by $100 each year through year 9. Determine the present
    worth of the sequence. Use an interest rate of 10%.
    6. The future worth in year 8 of an arithmetic gradient cash flow series for years 1 through 8 is $500,000. If the gradient
    increase each year is $3,000, determine the cash flow in year 1 at an interest rate of 9% per year.
    7. Calculate the present worth of a geometric gradient series with a cash flow of $40,000 in year 1 and increases of 6% each
    year through year 6. The interest rate is 9% per year.
    8. A northern California consulting firm wants to start saving money for replacement of network servers. If the company
    invests $10,000 at the end of year 1 but decreases the amount invested by 5% each year, how much will be available 4
    years from now at an earning rate of 8% per year?
    9. A start-up company that make robotic hardware for CIM (computer integrated manufacturing) systems borrowed $1
    million to expand its packaging and shipping facility. The contract required the company to repay the lender through an
    innovative mechanism called “faux dividends”, a series of uniform annual payments over a fixed period of time. If the
    company paid $300,000 per year for 5 years, what was the interest rate on the loan?
    10. RKE & Associates is considering the purchase of a building it currently leases for $30,000 per year. The owner of the
    building put it up for sale at a price of $170,000, but because the firm has been a good tenant, the owner offered to sell
    it to RKE for a cash price of $160,000 now. If purchased now, how long will it be before the company recovers its
    investment at an interest rate of 12% per year?
