Unconventional Equivalence Calculations

Situation 1: If you make


4 annual deposits of
$100 in your savings
account which earns
10% annual interest,
what equal annual
amount can be
withdrawn over 4
subsequent years?
Unconventional Equivalence Calculations

 Situation 2:
What value of A
would make the two
cash flow
transactions
equivalent if i =
10%?

Approach 2: Modify the Interest Rate

 Idea: Since cash flows occur every other


year, let's find out the equivalent compound
interest rate that covers the two-year period.
 How: If interest is compounded 10% annually,
the equivalent interest rate for two-year
period is 21%.
(1+0.10)(1+0.10) = 1.21
Solution
