PDV.
A firm is considering a project that will cost 1000 in the first
year (t=0)
and have positive earnings for the next 4 years:
Time Period: 0 1 2 3 4
Dollars (Mil) -1000 400 400 400 400
A. What is the Net Present Value (NPV) rule?
B. Calculate the NPV for r (interest rate) = 0.1 and for r=
0.0.
Explain (briefly) and intuitively why the lower rate increases
NPV.
C. Much of Europe is experiencing negative interest rates. Repeat
the NPV for r = -0.1.
What does the negative rate imply about the future value of money (
for example, if the interest rate is
-0.1, what is $1000 now worth one year from now and what does it
mean)?
