The value of an investment comes from its cash flows. Let’s say you are intent on receiving $45,000 per year, starting at the end of year one and continuing over 10 years. A lump sum of $380,000 invested now (year 0) will allow you to receive your desired annual amount. What interest rate is required to make this happen?
An operation manager expects that the new machine will generate the following streams of income: Year 1- Ᵽ 13, 240.25; Year 2 - Ᵽ 15, 780; Year 3 - Ᵽ18, 990.95; Year 4 - Ᵽ21, 500.50; Year 5 - Ᵽ25,000.00. What is the present value of these future payments if the assumed interest rate is 3.7% ? If a new technology can reduce the future cost of production in 6 years at the following rate: Ᵽ8,550, Ᵽ10,200, Ᵽ13,600, Ᵽ 15,000, Ᵽ12,500, Ᵽ9000 what is present value of the future cost of production assuming that the interest is 6.33%? If the cost of the new technology in Item No. 2 is Ᵽ 52,435.60, what is the net present value? Should you buy or not the new technology?

(PV of $1, FV of $1, PVA of $1, and FVA of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)Required1. What is the amount of annual cash flows that Apple must earn from these projects to have a 10% internal rate of return? (Hint: Identify the 10-period, 10% factor from the present value of an annuity table, and then divide $2.12 billion by this factor to get the annual cash flows necessary.)2. Access Apple’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, from Appendix A.a. Determine the amount that Apple invested in capital assets for 2017. Hint: Refer to the statement of cash flows.b. Did Apple invest more in capital assets or in marketable securities for 2017? What is the amount of annual cash flows that Apple must earn from these projects to have a 10% internal…
