Study Notes
Key Concepts in Discounted Cash Flow Valuation
- Understand future and present value calculations for investments with multiple cash flows.
- Learn to calculate loan payments and determine interest rates.
- Explore loan amortization and its impact on repayment schedules.
- Gain insight into how interest rates are quoted and interpreted.
Future Value of Multiple Cash Flows
- Future Value (FV) is calculated for each cash flow and then summed together.
- Example: With an initial deposit of 7,000andannualdepositsof7,000 and annual deposits of 7,000andannualdepositsof4,000 at 8% interest, total value after 3 years is $21,803.58.
- Future cash flows can also be analyzed separately to track their growth based on the interest rate.
Present Value of Multiple Cash Flows
- Present Value (PV) discounts future cash flows back to today’s value using a specific interest rate.
- Example: An investment paying 200,200, 200,400, 600,and600, and 600,and800 over four years at 12% would have a PV of $1,432.93.
- Important to apply the discounting formula accurately: PV = CF / (1 + r)^n.
Annuities and Perpetuities
- An annuity is a series of equal payments made at regular intervals, while a perpetuity provides infinite equal payments.
- Ordinary annuities pay at the end of each period; annuity due payments occur at the beginning.
- Basic formulas can determine the present value of these cash flows.
Importance of Matching Rates and Time Periods
- Ensure that the interest rate and time period used in calculations are consistent (annual, monthly, etc.).
- Cash inflows should be treated as positive and cash outflows as negative in calculations.
Loan Payment Calculations
- Monthly mortgage payments typically represented as a percentage of income can determine maximum loan amounts.
- Example: An individual with a monthly income of 3,000canaffordan3,000 can afford an 3,000canaffordan840 monthly payment, leading to a loan amount of approximately $140,105.
Investment Decisions
- Evaluating whether to accept an investment opportunity requires comparing the present value of expected cash flows to the upfront cost.
- Factors like required return rates (e.g., 15%) and future cash flows need to be considered in decision-making.
Saving for Retirement
- When planning for retirement, consider future cash flows and determine how much to invest today based on expected interest rates and time frames.
Practical Applications
- Use calculators and software (like Excel) for solving complex present and future value scenarios effectively.
- Understand the practical implications of financing decisions in various contexts such as mortgages, investments, and retirement planning.
