take the first 2 years.
\n" ); document.write( "the cash flow is:
\n" ); document.write( "end of year 0 = -1,200,000
\n" ); document.write( "end of year 1 = -300,000
\n" ); document.write( "end of year 2 = +200,000
\n" ); document.write( "find the present value of the cash flow at 11% per year.
\n" ); document.write( "you will get present value of cash flow (NPV) = -$1,307,945.78
\n" ); document.write( "you want a present value of cash flow of +100,000.
\n" ); document.write( "the difference is 1,407,945.78
\n" ); document.write( "that's in year 0.
\n" ); document.write( "multiply that by 1.11^3 to get a present value of cash flow (NPV) at the end of year 3 = 1,925,550.295.
\n" ); document.write( "your cash flow becomes:
\n" ); document.write( "end of year 0 = -1,200,000
\n" ); document.write( "end of year 1 = -300,000
\n" ); document.write( "end of year 2 = +200,000
\n" ); document.write( "end of year 3 = +1,925,550.295
\n" ); document.write( "find the present value of the cash flow at 11.5% per year.
\n" ); document.write( "you would get present value of cash flow (NPV) = +100,000.
\n" ); document.write( "this tells you the present value of cash flow at the end of year 3 is good.
\n" ); document.write( "now you want to change that to an annuity that has a present value of that at the end of year 3.
\n" ); document.write( "you would use a financial calculator to give you the annual payment at the end of year 3 to the end of year 7 that will give you a present value of 1,925,550.295 at the end of year 3.
\n" ); document.write( "in this calculation, the payments would be made at the beginning of each year.
\n" ); document.write( "the calculator will tell you that the annual payment would be 469,366.4318 at the end of year 3 going to the end of year 7.
\n" ); document.write( "you would plug that into your cash flow and find that the present value of that cash flow is equla to 100,000.
\n" ); document.write( "this is the figure you wanted so you're ok.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "i used excel and the ti-ba-ii financial calculator.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the excel takes the annual cash flow and brings it back to the end of year 0 at 11% per year.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the financial calculator finds the annual payments from a present value for 5 years.
\n" ); document.write( "the inputs to the calculator are:
\n" ); document.write( "present value = -1925550.295 at the end of year 3.
\n" ); document.write( "future value = 0
\n" ); document.write( "interest rate per year = 11%
\n" ); document.write( "number of years = 5 (from end of year 3 to end of year 7 = 5 years of payments).
\n" ); document.write( "payments are made at the beginning of each year.
\n" ); document.write( "this means the first payment is made at the end of year 3.
\n" ); document.write( "the output of that calculator was annual payments of 469,366.43 starting at the end of the third year and going to the end of the 7th year.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the output of the online financial calculator agrees with the output of the ti-ba-ii.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "here's a display of the excel spreadsheet used.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the left table is using the present value calculated for end of year 3.
\n" ); document.write( "the right table is using the annuity generated from that present value with payments from end of year 3 to end of year 7.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "here's a display of an online calculator that does pretty much the same thing that the ti-ba-ii does, only it rounds the answer for you.\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "note that the annuity calculation could have been done 2 ways.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "when the initial investment is at the end of year 3, the calculations shown above apply.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "if you assume the initial investment was at the beginning of year 3 (same as the end of year 2), then the present value would be -1925550.295 divided by 1.11 = -1,734,729.996.
\n" ); document.write( "the annuity calculations would then be made assuming end of year payments.
\n" ); document.write( "the payment at the end of each year would be the same as the payments at the beginning of each year in the above calculations.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "here is the display of the annuity calculations assuming end of year payments.\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "in both cases, the first payment is made at the end of year 3.\r
