Time Value of Money: Single cash flow
Respond to three questions and solve three computational problems about time value of money (TMV) as it applies to single cash flow. 1. Explain the concept of cash
flow in corporate finance. 2. Explain how present value and future values are related. 3. Explain how present values are affected by changes in interest rates. Use
references to support your responses as needed. Be sure to cite all references using correct APA style. Your responses should be free of grammar and spelling errors,
demonstrating strong written communication skills. This should be a word doc. PROBLEMS: In either a Word document or Excel spreadsheet, complete the following
problems. You may solve the problems algebraically, or you may use a financial calculator or an Excel spreadsheet. If you choose to solve the problems algebraically,
be sure to show your computations. If you use a financial calculator, show your input values. If you use an Excel spreadsheet, show your input values and formulas. In
addition to your solution to each computational problem, you must show the supporting work leading to your solution to receive credit for your answer. Unless otherwise
directed, assume annual compounding periods in the computational problems. 1. If you deposited $250 in your savings account today, and the bank pays 4 percent interest
per year, how much would you have in your savings account after 9 years? -Recalculate the account balance using a 6 percent interest rate and a 7 percent interest
rate. 2. A $450 deposit earns 6 percent interest in the first year, 3 percent interest in the second year, and 7 percent interest in the third year. What is the future
value at the end of the third year? What is the annual rate of return for an $8,000 investment if in five years it grows to $12,500? 3. Assuming the growth occurred in
six years and then eight years, recalculate the rate of return for these two scenarios. Please use these suggested resources: 1. Weaver, S. C., & Weston, J. F. (2001).
