operating income less taxes/depriciation equals net operating income so NOI= NI/PAT

Hi Guy,

I am using TI BA Plus II professional calculator. On calculating TVM problems getting '*' symbol on the top of the answer. Ex: 1601.5*.. and does this have any significance?

Thank you..!

This is normal.
* means it is a computed value. Soon as you enter any other value, * will clear off.

@LeoLazer - Thank you..!

A 5-year amortizing security with a par value of $100,000 and a coupon rate of 6.4% has an expected cash flow of $23,998.55 per year assuming no prepayments. The annual cash flow includes interest and principal payment. What is the value of this amortizing security assuming no principal prepayments and a discount rate of 7.8%?

I have assigned the following values:

N=5, I/Y = 7.8%, PMT = 23,998.55 or 6400, FV = 100,000

However the answer given is not matching with calculation based on above values. Should PMT be 23,998.55 or 6400? Missing something here? Kindly suggest.

Regards,

@Moneybhai
What are the options?
-93,672.99
??

@iPrateek - This End of chapter problem. Therefore no choices. However the answer given is $96,326.46...Dude something is missing i guess...Need to understand this? How much value you assigned to PMT? I guess 6,400..


@Moneybhai
where is this question from?
N=5, I/Y = 7.8%, PMT = 23,998.55, FV = 0
Keyword is "amortizing"

@LeoLazer: Thank you..! I got mislead with the word 'Assuming No prepayments'.

@iPrateek: You will find this problem in Study material 'Fixed income' - Reading 57 'Introdution to the valuation of debt securities'.
