MARR = 12% when f = 10%
'Real' MARR
=(1+0.12) / (1+0.10) - 1
= .018 = 18%
Now I have $100
to calculate purchasing power
F = P (1+ inflation rate) n
= $100 (1+ .18)10
=$1,180
you now have $100. if the inflation rate is expected to be 5% next year, 6%...
9 An investor wants a real rate of return i' of 10% per year. If the expected annual inflation rate for the next several years is 3.5%, what interest rate i should be used in project analysis calculations? 10 Inflation has been a reality for the general economy of the U.S. in many years.

Currently, you can exchange 100 for $135.33. The inflation rate in Euroland is expected to be 2.6 percent as compared to 3.1 percent in the U.S. Assuming that relative purchasing power parity exists, the exchange rate 2 years from now should be:
Question 7 The U.S. inflation rate is expected to be 5% over the next year, while the European inflation rate is expected to be 5%. The current spot rate of the euro is $1.03. Using purchasing power parity, the expected spot rate at the end of one year is $____. 1.02 1.03 1.04 1.05
You are saving for retirement. You start your first deposit one year from now and want to make 40 identical end-of-year deposits. After 40 years, you want in your account a sufficient amount so that you can have the same purchasing power as $30,000 today for 20 years. Assuming inflation of 3% and investment rate of 6%, how much do you have to save annually to achieve this. Assume no inflation following retirement.
Case 2: By the end of each year, you contribute an equal amount of $3,300 per year to your retirement fund portfolio, which earns an annual nominal return of 11.25% averagely in the long term. The annual contribution continues for 36 years until you retire. (Note: All tax concerns are ignored.) (a) Ignoring the annual inflation. By the time of your retirement, how much nominal money value would you have in your portfolio? (b) Again, ignoring the annual inflation. For...
You hope to retire in 30 years, when you do, you would like to have the purchasing power of $100,000 today, during each year of retirement.

Your retirement will last 25 years, you expect your 401k to earn 5% per year during your retirement years. How much money do you need at...
If you have $2079 ten years from now in your bank account, your current purchasing power is $[real] when real rate was 6%, inflation was 1.5%, and market 7.59%. How much do you have in real money?
6. The Fisher effect and the cost of unexpected inflation Suppose the nominal interest rate on savings accounts is 11% per year, and both actual and expected inflation are equal to 5%. Complete the first row of the table by filling in the expected real interest rate and the actual real interest rate before any change in the money supply. Now suppose the Fed unexpectedly increases the growth rate of the money supply, causing the inflation rate to rise unexpectedly from 5% to...
Let the interest rate before taxes be 4% and assume the inflation rate is 3.5%. Three individual farmers are in 20%, 30%, and 40% tax brackets, respectively. a. Determine how much (after taxes) each farmer could afford to bid for a piece of land expected to return $60.00 per year (in today’s purchasing power) into the foreseeable future. Assume that the inflationary component of the opportunity cost is not taxed but the real component is taxed. b. Now assume that...
If market considers that Mexico expected inflation rate next year is 3% higher than expected US inflation rate what would be the impact on relative interest rates in the two countries? Is it going to impact the interest rates now or next year?
