4. PV and Effective Annual Rate
Assume that you inherited some money.
A friend of yours is working as an unpaid intern at a local brokerage firm, and
her boss is selling securities that call for 4 payments of $50 (1 payment at
the end of each of the next 4 years) plus an extra payment of $1,000 at the end
of Year 4. Your friend says she can get you some of these securities at a cost
of $950 each. Your money is now invested in a bank that pays an 12% nominal
(quoted) interest rate but with quarterly compounding. You regard the
securities as being just as safe, and as liquid, as your bank deposit, so your
required effective annual rate of return on the securities is the same as that
on your bank deposit. You must calculate the value of the securities to decide
whether they are a good investment. What is their present value to you? Round
your answer to the nearest cent.
