Chapter 6: Question 6E (page 302)

Presented below are three unrelated situations.

(a) Dwayne Wade Company recently signed a lease for a new office building, for a lease period of 10 years. Under the lease agreement, a security deposit of \(12,000 is made, with the deposit to be returned at the expiration of the lease, with interest compounded at 5% per year. What amount will the company receive at the time the lease expires?

(b) Serena Williams Corporation, having recently issued a \)20 million, 15-year bond issue, is committed to make annual sinking fund deposits of \(600,000. The deposits are made on the last day of each year and yield a return of 10%. Will the fund at the end of 15 years be sufficient to retire the bonds? If not, what will the deficiency be?

(c) Under the terms of his salary agreement, president Rex Walters has an option of receiving either an immediate bonus of \)55,000, or a deferred bonus of $70,000 payable in 10 years. Ignoring tax considerations and assuming a relevant interest rate of 4%, which form of settlement should Walters accept?

Step by step solution

01

Computation amount received

AmountReceived=Amount脳FV=12,000脳1.62889=$19,547

02

Calculation of the deficiency

FVofordinaryannuity=Amount脳FVfactor=600,000脳31.77248=19,063,488

Deficiency=Issuepriceofbond-amountcalculated=20,000,000-19,063,488=$936,512

03

Calculation of present value of the deferred bonus

PVofdeferredbonus=Bonusamount脳PVfactor=70,000脳0.67556=$47,289

He should opt for the immediate bonus of $55,000.

Tony Bautista needs $25,000 in 4 years. What amount must he invest today if his investment earns 12% compounded annually? What amount must he invest if his investment earns 12% annual interest compounded quarterly?

Answer the following questions related to Dubois Inc.

(a) Dubois Inc. has \(600,000 to invest. The company is trying to decide between two alternative uses of the funds. One alternative provides \)80,000 at the end of each year for 12 years, and the other is to receive a single lump-sum payment of \(1,900,000 at the end of the 12 years. Which alternative should Dubois select? Assume the interest rate is constant over the entire investment.

(b) Dubois Inc. has completed the purchase of new Dell computers. The fair value of the equipment is \)824,150. The purchase agreement specifies an immediate down payment of \(200,000 and semiannual payments of \)76,952 beginning at the end of 6 months for 5 years. What is the interest rate, to the nearest percent, used in discounting this purchase transaction?

(c) Dubois Inc. loans money to John Kruk Corporation in the amount of \(800,000. Dubois accepts an 8% note due in 7 years with interest payable semiannually. After 2 years (and receipt of interest for 2 years), Dubois needs money and therefore sells the note to Chicago National Bank, which demands interest on the note of 10% compounded semiannually. What is the amount Dubois will receive on the sale of the note?

(d) Dubois Inc. wishes to accumulate \)1,300,000 by December 31, 2027, to retire bonds outstanding. The company deposits \(200,000 on December 31, 2017, which will earn interest at 10% compounded quarterly, to help in the retirement of this debt. In addition, the company wants to know how much should be deposited at the end of each quarter for 10 years to ensure that \)1,300,000 is available at the end of 2027. (The quarterly deposits will also earn at a rate of 10%, compounded quarterly.) (Round to even dollars.)

Question: Kehoe, Inc. owes $40,000 to Ritter Company. How much would Kehoe have to pay each year if the debt is retired through four equal payments (made at the end of the year), given an interest rate on the debt of 12%? (Round to two decimal places.)

Ellison Inc., a manufacturer of steel school lockers, plans to purchase a new punch press for use in its manufacturing process. After contacting the appropriate vendors, the purchasing department received differing terms and options from each vendor. The Engineering Department has determined that each vendor鈥檚 punch press is substantially identical and each has a useful life of 20 years. In addition, Engineering has estimated that required year-end maintenance costs will be \(1,000 per year for the first 5 years, \)2,000 per year for the next 10 years, and \(3,000 per year for the last 5 years. Following is each vendor鈥檚 sales package.

Vendor A: \)55,000 cash at time of delivery and 10 year-end payments of \(18,000 each. Vendor A offers all its customers the right to purchase at the time of sale a separate 20-year maintenance service contract, under which Vendor A will perform all year-end maintenance at a one-time initial cost of \)10,000.

Vendor B: Forty semiannual payments of \(9,500 each, with the first installment due upon delivery. Vendor B will perform all year-end maintenance for the next 20 years at no extra charge.

Vendor C: Full cash price of \)150,000 will be due upon delivery.

Instructions Assuming that both Vendors A and B will be able to perform the required year-end maintenance, Ellison鈥檚 cost of funds is 10%, and the machine will be purchased on January 1, from which vendor should the press be purchased?

Question:The Kellys are planning for a retirement home. They estimate they will need $200,000 4 years from now to purchase this home. Assuming an interest rate of 10%, what amount must be deposited at the end of each of the 4 years to fund the home price? (Round to two decimal places.)
