...Week 3 - Homework P4-1. A best-selling author decides to cash in on her latest novel by selling the rights to the book’s royalties for the next four years to an investor. Royalty payments arrive once per year, starting one year from now. In the first year the author expects $400,000 in royalties, followed by $300,000, then $100,000, and then $10,000 in the three subsequent years. If the investor purchasing the rights to royalties requires a return of 7 percent per year, what should the investor pay? A4-1 P = $400,000+$300,000+$100,000+$10,000=$725,122.13 1.071 1.072 1.073 1.074 P4-12. Bennifer Jewelers recently issued 10-year bonds that make annual interest payments of $50.
