What is normally used as the discount rate in the net present value method?
the net present value as determined by normal discount rate is 10%
As the discount rate becomes higher and higher the present value of inflows approaches what?
As, the present value of future cash flows is determined by the discount rate, so increase or decrease in the discount rate will affect the present value. Discount rate is simply cost or the expense to the company,so in simplest terms, discount rate goes up, cost goes up,so this will lower the present value of cash flows. Assumes a discount rate of 5%,to discount $100 in one years time: Present Value=$100 * 1/(1.05) =$95.24 Ok,as you say,if the discount rate becomes higher,let's say 8%: Present Value=$100 * 1/(1.08) =$92.6 so, the higher the discount rate, the lower the present value.
What is the difference between the coupon rate and discount rate in financial investments?
The coupon rate is the fixed interest rate paid on a bond, while the discount rate is the rate used to calculate the present value of future cash flows in an investment.
What is the difference between the discount rate and the rate of return?
The discount rate is the interest rate used to calculate the present value of future cash flows, while the rate of return is the profit or loss on an investment over a specific period of time.
Why a high discount rate gives a low present value of a cash flow?
The higher the discount rate, the more time value of money we are tacking out of original amount from the future value

To increase a given present value the discount rate should be adjusted?
To increase a given present value, you would generally lower the discount rate. This is because a lower discount rate reduces the impact of future cash flows, making the present value higher. Conversely, increasing the discount rate would decrease the present value.
What is the formula for Present Value Interest Factor?
Present Value Interest Factor, abbreviated as PVIF and is used to simplify present value computations, may be computed as follows: PVIF = 1 / ( ( 1 + r) ^ t) where... r = interest discount rate t = number of periods

What is the difference between compounding and discounting?
Compounding finds the future value of a present value using a compound interest rate. Discounting finds the present value of some future value, using a discount rate. They are inverse relationships. This is perhaps best illustrated by demonstrating that a present value of some future sum is the amount which, if compounded using the same interest rate and time period, results in a future value of the very same amount.
The present value of future cash flows has what relationship to interest rate?
The present value of future cash flows is inversely related to the interest rate.
What is the present value of 500 to be received 10 yrs from today if it is discount at the rate of 6 percent?
What is the present value of 500 to be recieved 10 yrs from today if it is discount at the rate of 6 percent?
When a bonds stated interest rate is less than the market interest rate is the rate at a discount or premium?
When the coupon rate (the contractual periodical "interest" payments) are lower than the yield (the market required return) the bond will be in discount. This discount makes up for the low value of the coupons.
What happens to the present value if you increase the rate?
If you increase the rate, the present value will decrease. This is because a higher discount rate means that future cash flows are worth less in present value terms.
What is the inerest rate if the government perpetuity pays 4 a year and is selling for 48?
The interest rate is 8 1/3 because Present Value = Payment/Interest rate Present Value = 48 Payment is 4 Interest Rate = Payment/Present Value = 4/48 = 8.33%
