A project yields an annual benefit of $25 a year, starting next year and continuing forever. What is the present value of the benefits if the interest rate is 10%?
Answer
the project is a forever series.
The present value of forever series =A/i
A=Annual benefit
i=interest rate
PV=25/0.1=$250
The present value of the series is $250

A project costs 10 this year, has a benefit of 5 this year, and has a benefit of 6 next year. (a) Assuming that the interest rate is r= 1, what is the present value (sum of the dis- counted benefits minus costs) of the project? (b) For what value of interest rate r, the present value of the project will be exactly equal to zero?

Problem 2: Cost-benefit Analysis. A project costs 10 this ycar, has a benefit of 5 this ycar, and has a bencfit of 6 next ycar. (a) Assuming that the interest rate is r , what is the present value (sum of the dis- counted benefits minus costs) of the project? (b) For what value of interest rate r, the present value of the project will be exactly equal to zero?
22. If a project begins producing benefits a year from now, and yields a level B of benefits each year forever, the present discounted value of the benefits of the project is a) infinite. b) infinite unless there is risk and the benefits are discounted by a risk factor. c) B/r, where r is the discount rate. d) B/(1+ r), where r is the discount rate.
An investment offers to pay $500 a year forever starting at the end of year 5. If the interest rate is 10%, what is the investment's value today? (Assume annual compounding) $3756.57 $3722.43 $3415.07 $3104.61
1. What is the present value of receiving $30 at the end of each year forever, starting 9 years from now? Assume an annual rate of interest of 7% 2. A perpetuity pays 1 at the beginning of every year. The present value is 10. Calculate the annual effective rate of interest earned by the perpetuity.
2. The government is contemplating project A that yields the following stream of benefits and costs. Project A Year 2 S10,0000 0 Benefits0 $2,000 $4,000 $6,000 (a) Find the net present value and the benefit cost ratio for this project, assuming a discount rate of 5%. (b) Re-calculate the net present value assuming a discount rate of (i) 3%, (ii) 8 % and (iii) 10%. Use a graph to illustrate how the net present value of the project is affected...
if the interest rate is 10%, what is the present value of $50,000/year forever, starting 21 years from now? Hint: The PV value of $1 to be paid in 20 yrs is 1/(1+r)^20 = 0.15
