Full transcript
- 0:02hello uh this recording
- 0:04um video uh will cover sections 10.3
- 0:09and 10.4 on the topic of inflation in
- 0:13chapter 10.
- 0:14um of course uh you should always go to
- 0:18the start page when you go to blackboard
- 0:20and check out the bottom of the start
- 0:23page has the
- 0:25revised uh schedule of assignments
- 0:29you should read in your textbook
- 0:33your ebook whatever you prefer sec
- 0:36pages 312 to 318 which covers these
- 0:40these two sections um
- 0:45view this video and you're responsible
- 0:49for
- 0:49all of these notes that will also be
- 0:52posted
- 0:52on blackboard with this video and if you
- 0:56really want to make a good grade in the
- 0:57course
- 0:58work as many problems at the end of each
- 1:00chapter as you can
- 1:02all of that is is what we say every
- 1:06class
- 1:08it hasn't changed um
- 1:12the
- 1:15ch section 10.3 deals with
- 1:21making adjustments due to inflation
- 1:25author describes a future worth cases
- 1:29actually four of them and we're going to
- 1:31go through those
- 1:32uh in this lecture um
- 1:36the um the author has not really
- 1:40integrated inflation very well
- 1:42throughout
- 1:43the course it's just kind of focused on
- 1:46this particular
- 1:48chapter and so
- 1:51um it's um
- 1:55it's unclear whether
- 1:58you you really um whether
- 2:01in the rest of the book we're
- 2:03considering inflation or not
- 2:05and so um
- 2:08that's one of the shortcomings of
- 2:12i think the lesson i think it's
- 2:16important that you understand inflation
- 2:19and then if you can incorporate it in
- 2:22into your economic analysis that is
- 2:25something you should be doing
- 2:28um the first case
- 2:31that the author discusses or creates
- 2:35essentially is to find the number of
- 2:38future or then current remember future
- 2:41dollars
- 2:42from the last lecture are called
- 2:46then current dollars including both the
- 2:49interest that you will earn uh
- 2:52what is called the real interest rate
- 2:56and the inflation so we're trying to
- 2:59include both
- 3:00in that case we use what we call
- 3:04the market rate the market rate was
- 3:07the symbol used was i sub uh f
- 3:11um which means that that i
- 3:14contains the inflation rate f um
- 3:19so uh the future number of dollars
- 3:23is the present number times 1 plus
- 3:26i sub f to the n power well that's the
- 3:29same equation
- 3:31throughout the course we've been using i
- 3:34uh which the author says
- 3:36is the real rate okay
- 3:39the market rate in fact you could argue
- 3:43is is the real rate but i shouldn't say
- 3:46that
- 3:46i don't want to confuse you
- 3:51the rate that you get in when you
- 3:55do financial transactions always
- 3:58includes inflation so
- 4:00um but we haven't been using that
- 4:04as such in in the in the course
- 4:08um the so if you if you
- 4:11use your your symbolic formula
- 4:14it's just p find f given p
- 4:18at rate i sub f for n
- 4:22periods um
- 4:25and um i'm not sure why this
- 4:29this uh um
- 4:32this is here or this is here
- 4:36i don't think i need either of those two
- 4:38things
- 4:40um so i'll take those out
- 4:43and when i post this it won't have those
- 4:46um
- 4:48so that's the equation and
- 4:52he says where he defines um
- 4:56the market rate i sub f
- 4:59equal we did this in the last class but
- 5:01i'm just repeating it here
- 5:03that's equation 10.6 and we use this
- 5:06equation a lot
- 5:08is i plus f plus i times f
- 5:11okay um and so here's a
- 5:15an example of this case um
- 5:18the uh
- 5:22the present value is one thousand
- 5:24dollars the number of
- 5:25years is ten the
- 5:29market rate i sub f is
- 5:32ten percent and the inflation rate is
- 5:35four percent
- 5:36remember i sub f has this inflation rate
- 5:40embedded in it okay so it's already
- 5:43there
- 5:44okay um and um
- 5:48the author says um
- 5:51determine f that is the future number of
- 5:54dollars
- 5:56um in four different cases and and these
- 5:59are the four
- 5:59k uh there are four cases but
- 6:03the first case case one we're gonna
- 6:07find the actual future amount
- 6:09accumulated
- 6:10um or owed if you were borrowing that
- 6:14thousand dollars
- 6:15in this account okay so
- 6:18you use the market rate and you find
- 6:22f so that is equation 10.7
- 6:26okay so we just plug into equation 10.7
- 6:31f equals p times f given p
- 6:35i sub f and n i sub f is ten percent and
- 6:40a seven we plug in we get one thousand
- 6:42nine hundred forty eight dollars
- 6:44um he says this case will correctly
- 6:47predict
- 6:49the amount of capital needed at a future
- 6:52time
- 6:53to overcome the effects of inflation
- 6:56plus
- 6:57realize a stated rate of return
- 7:00so that's what what
- 7:03uh we are accomplishing there
- 7:07um so the future
- 7:10future value is um
- 7:14on nineteen hundred and forty eight
- 7:17dollars
- 7:18so that the second case um
- 7:22is where you wish to find the actual
- 7:26purchasing power of the future
- 7:29or then current dollars remember from
- 7:31the last class the purchasing power
- 7:34was called the constant value dollars or
- 7:37today's dollars and
- 7:40cv dollars constant value well the
- 7:44constant value dollars
- 7:45are future dollars reduced by
- 7:49the inflation rate so what we have to do
- 7:52is say constant value dollars equals
- 7:56purchasing power
- 7:57of f which is equal to f
- 8:00which is p times 1 plus i sub f to the n
- 8:04which you
- 8:04we just did in the last case but then we
- 8:07have to
- 8:08take out the inflation so we divide by
- 8:111 plus f to the n power
- 8:14and that removes the the
- 8:18reduced buying power due to inflation
- 8:22essentially must reduce the purchasing
- 8:24power
- 8:24of the actual future dollars due to
- 8:27inflation and that's what we're doing
- 8:29here
- 8:30by basically dividing by one plus
- 8:33f to the n or another way to do it is to
- 8:36multiply by one plus
- 8:38f to the minus n and we know what this
- 8:41is
- 8:41this is this is p given f
- 8:45at the rate f for n periods okay
- 8:49so in terms of
- 8:52this formula in terms of your symbolic
- 8:56formula
- 8:56um f uh the purchasing power of
- 9:01f equals p
- 9:04times f given p so we're
- 9:07inflating it f given p we're moving it
- 9:10out to the future
- 9:12at the um market rate
- 9:15i sub f for n periods and then we're
- 9:18kind of deflating it
- 9:20to get a purchasing power number okay so
- 9:24this is really and i'll
- 9:27post it like this this is cv
- 9:31equals um that is a constant value is
- 9:35equal to the purchasing power of the
- 9:37future value
- 9:38okay and so um
- 9:42when we go through this um
- 9:46case 2 the future
- 9:49value of the purchasing power it uh
- 9:52the the future purchasing power in
- 9:55cv dollars for the estimated
- 9:58is is given by this so we we basically
- 10:02take
- 10:03that 1948 that we got in the last
- 10:07case case one and we gotta pull out
- 10:11the inflation okay so we have
- 10:14four we had we were given that the
- 10:17inflation
- 10:18rate was four percent so we're going to
- 10:21divide by 1.04 to the seventh power
- 10:25and when we do that uh we're basically
- 10:28executing any one of these three
- 10:30equations they're all the same
- 10:32we get that even though
- 10:36maybe this account will have nineteen
- 10:38hundred and forty
- 10:39eight dollars at the end of year seven
- 10:43what it would buy in today's goods and
- 10:46services because they'll cost more
- 10:49would only be fourteen hundred and
- 10:50eighty dollars worth of stuff
- 10:52that's the constant value um
- 10:55term and i would rather we
- 10:59make sure we know that's constant value
- 11:02of the f dollars and actually this is
- 11:06purchasing power
- 11:14don't forget that purchasing power of
- 11:16the efforts
- 11:17it's the f dollars is this much that's
- 11:20how many dollars is there
- 11:22but in terms of what they would buy
- 11:25because you're buying things seven years
- 11:27from now if you
- 11:28if you leave the money there okay so
- 11:33it has to be reduced by the inflation
- 11:35rate that's what the author discusses
- 11:37there
- 11:38so the next um case um
- 11:41or actually he discusses this
- 11:44the same case in another way
- 11:49he he says one thing we could do
- 11:52instead of basically inflating at the
- 11:55market rate
- 11:56and then deflating so to speak at the
- 11:59inflation rate
- 12:01we could simply just use the real rate
- 12:04the
- 12:04i and he says if we solve the equation
- 12:086 for i remember equation six
- 12:11is i sub f equals
- 12:15i plus f plus the product
- 12:18i times f and i
- 12:21is the real rate as shown below so if we
- 12:25if we solve this equation uh we factor
- 12:28out the i
- 12:29from the first and third term we get i
- 12:32times one plus f and then we
- 12:36keep the f over here and then we divide
- 12:39by the 1 plus
- 12:40f to get i and and then subtract f
- 12:43from both sides we get i equals i sub r
- 12:47minus f divided by 1 plus f and that's
- 12:50the
- 12:51equation 10.9 just use that i
- 12:55then um in
- 12:58the uh to get the uh
- 13:02the constant value of the future dollars
- 13:06so the author goes through that process
- 13:09here
- 13:10to give you um the i
- 13:13value he uses the numbers remember
- 13:17i sub f was 10 and f
- 13:20was four percent uh in the original
- 13:24statement of the problem so
- 13:27we get i sub f minus f that's ten
- 13:30percent minus four percent
- 13:32in the numerator and then we divide that
- 13:34by 1 plus f which is 1.04
- 13:37we get 5.77
- 13:40percent as our real rate
- 13:44okay and then we we have the constant
- 13:47value
- 13:49uh or the purchasing uh i'll say
- 13:52constant value equal purchasing
- 14:00purchasing power
- 14:04of f equals
- 14:08um 1000 f given p
- 14:12at rate i for n periods
- 14:15that's 1488. so it gives
- 14:18us the same value as using
- 14:21the market rate and then deflating it
- 14:24that's what we did here
- 14:25to get 14.88 we use the market rate
- 14:29uh to get 1948 dollars
- 14:33but they'll only buy that many dollars
- 14:36worth of goods and services
- 14:38if you were using your money now to buy
- 14:41those goods and services
- 14:43so
- 14:46this is still more than a thousand
- 14:49dollars so you've gained
- 14:50ground so to speak in buying power
- 14:54by investing your money at 10
- 14:58okay but you haven't gained the full 10
- 15:02because inflation has eaten up some of
- 15:05that
- 15:05okay um the full 10 gain
- 15:09would mean that you could buy um
- 15:12[Music]
- 15:14nineteen hundred and forty eight dollars
- 15:16worth of goods and services
- 15:18okay so
- 15:21um the the the third case
- 15:25that the author discusses is
- 15:28um the number of future dollars at time
- 15:32and to maintain the same purchasing
- 15:35power
- 15:35as p dollars today in other words all
- 15:38you want to do is find the number of
- 15:41dollars
- 15:41that will buy the same number of goods
- 15:45and services
- 15:46as as one thousand dollars will buy now
- 15:50that was p
- 15:51remember p was one thousand dollars in
- 15:53this case
- 15:54all you have to do is find the future
- 15:58value
- 15:59at the inflation rate so the future
- 16:02value
- 16:03in terms of uh buying a thousand dollars
- 16:06worth of goods and services
- 16:08is a p which is a thousand f given p
- 16:12f is four percent and is seven
- 16:15periods seven years and he gets thirteen
- 16:19hundred and
- 16:21dollars so if you
- 16:25were to invest your money at
- 16:28four percent um
- 16:33all you would be you would you would
- 16:35have more money
- 16:36at time seven you'd have this many
- 16:38dollars but
- 16:39that many dollars would buy the same
- 16:43number of goods and services at time
- 16:45seven that one thousand dollars will buy
- 16:48now that's what that means
- 16:51um the last case then
- 16:55the fourth case is really not a new case
- 16:58at all
- 16:58he's just substituting the mar
- 17:02for the real i okay
- 17:05uh that's just uh uh substituting for i
- 17:09so uh he's saying
- 17:12that uh if you want to know how many
- 17:14dollars will be there in the future
- 17:17you take p times one plus demar
- 17:20r what's mar r i'm sorry mar sub
- 17:23f my mars of f
- 17:26um is the um
- 17:30market mar the market mar
- 17:33remember if it's i sub f it's the market
- 17:36rate
- 17:37well mar is a rate it's a minimum
- 17:40attractive rate of return
- 17:41and if you include inflation in that
- 17:44then it's
- 17:46mar sub f and it's you would raise that
- 17:49to the n
- 17:50power to get the future value and so
- 17:53if you substitute the mar for i in
- 17:55equation
- 17:56610 remember this is equation 610 again
- 18:00i sub f equal one
- 18:03plus f plus i f this yields
- 18:07mars sub f equals mar plus
- 18:10f this is the this is the real
- 18:14minimum attractive rate of return this
- 18:17is the inflation rate
- 18:19and then this is the product of the two
- 18:21and that gives you
- 18:22mars of f just like i gave you
- 18:26that product okay so
- 18:29um when we solve case four
- 18:33uh using mar f we're just basically
- 18:37going to
- 18:38uh going to get the same result that we
- 18:41got in
- 18:42case one okay um we want to both
- 18:45maintain our our we want to account for
- 18:49inflation and we also want to earn a
- 18:52rate of return
- 18:53but understanding that the real rate of
- 18:55return that we're
- 18:56earning above inflation
- 18:59is 5.77 and
- 19:03this is the market rate that we're using
- 19:0610 so um
- 19:10now i'm going to work well i'm going to
- 19:12cover section
- 19:15um 10.4 very briefly uh
- 19:18calculations adjusted for inflation
- 19:21annual worth calculations
- 19:23all he says is basically you can boil
- 19:26this down to
- 19:27use the market rate i sub r when
- 19:30calculating
- 19:31annual worth okay and we know how to get
- 19:33ice
- 19:35sub r from equation 10.6
- 19:39and so um the next
- 19:44i'm going to work a couple of problems
- 19:46example problems for you
- 19:49um i'm not sure i don't think i can't
- 19:52recall these being in the book
- 19:54these are our problems um that i have
- 19:59from my notes um how much can
- 20:02the manufacturer of superconducting
- 20:05magnetic
- 20:06energy storage systems afford to spend
- 20:10now okay so that's that's a p
- 20:14okay uh on new equipment
- 20:17in lieu of spending seventy five
- 20:20thousand
- 20:21four years from now okay so
- 20:24uh if they spend some money now that's
- 20:27in lo
- 20:27that'll save them seventy five thousand
- 20:30four years from now
- 20:31the company's mar is 12
- 20:35per year and the inflation rate
- 20:38is estimated to be 3 per year
- 20:42so we're given f equals 75 000. that's
- 20:47the number
- 20:48of then current dollars at time
- 20:51what is it time for four years from now
- 20:54i think
- 20:55um spending four years from now
- 20:59um the mar the real mar
- 21:02is twelve percent but the inflation
- 21:04rates three percent
- 21:06and uh n is four years so we want to
- 21:09find
- 21:10p and then solving equation 10.12 which
- 21:14was our
- 21:14our essentially case 4
- 21:17this is a case 4 problem um
- 21:21p is equal to f times 1 plus mar sub
- 21:24f to the minus n okay
- 21:27and mars of f we we basically use
- 21:31equation 10.6
- 21:33to get that we take mar
- 21:37plus f plus the product which gives us
- 21:4215.36 percent
- 21:44we plug that in bring it back four years
- 21:47at that rate
- 21:48and we get forty two thousand three
- 21:50hundred and forty nine dollars
- 21:53that is uh essentially the present
- 21:56value of 75
- 21:59000 four years from now
- 22:03at the market mar
- 22:06that's what mars of f is gotta
- 22:10learn a lot of new terminology and keep
- 22:12it straight
- 22:13you got real rate market rate
- 22:17remember the market rate includes
- 22:19inflation
- 22:20the real rate does not okay it excludes
- 22:24inflation okay we're going to work
- 22:27another problem
- 22:29example two an
- 22:32engineer deposits 10 000 into an account
- 22:36when the market rate is 10
- 22:40per year and the inflation rate is 5
- 22:44per year okay um
- 22:47the remember the market rate includes
- 22:51inflation so that 5
- 22:53is already embedded in in that ten
- 22:55percent
- 22:56the uh uh the count is left undisturbed
- 23:00in other words no deposits no
- 23:02withdrawals for five years how much
- 23:05money will be in the account
- 23:07well it's earning a market rate um of 10
- 23:10percent and that's
- 23:11including inflation so we got p equals 1
- 23:15000
- 23:15the market rate includes inflation is
- 23:18designated as
- 23:20i sub r f um
- 23:23and that's at ten percent per year
- 23:27how much will be uh how much is
- 23:30f at n equal five so equation 10.7
- 23:34we have f equals p times one plus
- 23:38i sub f to the n power ten thousand
- 23:41times one point one to the fifth power
- 23:44sixteen thousand one hundred and five
- 23:46dollars
- 23:47that's part a of the question
- 23:50part b says what will be the purchasing
- 23:54power
- 23:54in terms of today's dollars so
- 23:57we're looking for the constant value of
- 24:00these
- 24:01f dollars here and um
- 24:04we must remove the inflation of five
- 24:07percent per year
- 24:09from the f to get the purchasing power
- 24:12or
- 24:12constant value dollars or today's
- 24:15dollars we call them
- 24:17use equation 10.10 and solve for p
- 24:20equation 10.10
- 24:22is this is really the purchasing power
- 24:26of
- 24:26f equals
- 24:31p times one plus f and that
- 24:34should be to the minus n
- 24:38um solving for p uh
- 24:41yields p equals uh
- 24:46oh i'm sorry this is this is attic
- 24:48equation has it
- 24:50is going in the opposite direction that
- 24:53is a plus n
- 24:54solve that equation for p and you get f
- 24:57times 1 plus f to the minus n
- 25:00and you um you then
- 25:03that f is five percent and this is five
- 25:06years as well and it's five
- 25:08so you do that and um you get
- 25:12purchasing power of those
- 25:15um let's see sixteen hundred
- 25:18thousand and one hundred and five
- 25:20dollars have a purchasing power of
- 25:22twelve
- 25:23thousand six hundred and nineteen
- 25:26because
- 25:26inflation has eaten away at the
- 25:29purchasing power okay
- 25:31part c what is the real
- 25:35rate of return okay the real rate
- 25:39so then the author has to solve for i
- 25:43okay and remember we're going to use um
- 25:47equation 10.9 actually is where we
- 25:52we we do that solution we start with
- 25:55equation 10.6 um
- 25:5910.6 was i
- 26:02um was i i sub
- 26:05f equals i plus f
- 26:09plus i f i times f this is equation 10.6
- 26:14we're going to solve that equation for i
- 26:17and we we did that just a few minutes
- 26:20ago
- 26:20to get equation 10.9 equation 10.9
- 26:24says i equals
- 26:28i sub f minus f divided by 1 plus
- 26:32f and so we have 10 percent
- 26:36minus five percent over 1.05 which is
- 26:40one plus f okay and um
- 26:44or 0.1 minus 0.05 that's 10
- 26:4810 5 and 1 plus five percent
- 26:52and then we do that and we get four
- 26:54point seven
- 26:55six percent so that is quote the real
- 26:58rate
- 26:59um that you're you're earning above
- 27:03inflation and that will conclude today's
- 27:09lecture and thank you for paying
- 27:12attention
- 27:13bye
