Approximating the price of long-term bonds
The present value of an infinite stream of dollar payments of $z (that starts next year) is $z/i when the nominal interest rate, i, is constant. This formula gives the price of a consol-a bond paying a fixed nominal payment each year, forever. It is also a good approximation for the present discounted value of a stream of constant payments over long but not infinite periods, as long as i is constant. Let's examine how close the approximation is.
a. Suppose that i = 10%. Let $z = 100. What is the present value of the consol?
b. If i = 10%, what is the expected present discounted value of a bond that pays $z over the next 10 years? 20 years? 30 years? 60 years? (Hint: Use the formula from the chapter but remember to adjust for the first payment.)
c. Repeat the calculations in (a) and (b) for i = 2% and i = 5%.
A company is considering the purchase of a large stamping machine that will cost $190,000, plus $4,500 transportation and $9,000 installation charges. It is estimated that, at the end of five years, the MV of the machine will be $30,000.
On the (admittedly unlikely) assumption that the interest rate before the money supply increase equals the long-run interest rate, is the long-run increase in the price level more than proportional or less than proportional to the money supply cha..

Skilling was quoted in a financial journal as saying, "Only two things at Enron are not subject to negotiation: the firm's personnel evaluation policy and its company-wide risk management program." (McLean 2003)
Suppose households save 5 percent of their disposable income. If the government increases expenditures and taxes by $100 billion, by how much will saving decline? By how much will consumption decline? What happens to investment? (Assume a closed e..
